simpleX and a more anti-compliance mail company like Tuta mail are even better options! Don't get comfortable halfway down the path!
Dude just let someone be proud of switching away from invasive spyware for fuck's sake. Also, SimpleX isn't inherently better than Signal and suffers way worse from the network effect. Signal has consistently shown through subpoenas that it has functionally nothing on you. They aren't "halfway down the path"; Signal is fantastic.
Beautifully put
I appreciate your article, and get what youre trying to say, but encouraging people in a direction they are already headed down is different than all or nothing.
Simplex is vc funded and doesn’t have a business model so nobody knows if it will ever be sustainable, I won’t pass any of my chats to it until they figure out their stuff.
Tuta too is for profit even if not vc funded. So the risk of easily getting sold is always there and tbh I don’t like giving money to for profit vertical companies unless necessary.
Btw no company is anti compliance. They fight in court but in the end they will comply, they have to…
I'd love to like Tuta but man was using their service a constant pain. The search is incredibly slow for any messages not downloaded and keyword matching is somehow weird, the spam filter fails terribly (my spam folder was always full of legitimate messages), assigning rules is clumsy, and you can't even bulk export mail to switch services:((
Ah yes two companies I would definitely trust
