Signal is nog steeds centralized. Zodra investeerders opdrogen en ze hun servers sluiten is de app niet meer te gebruiken. Een decentrale app zoals https://delta.chat/ zal veel langer meegaan.

Delta Chat aims for “WhatsApp-level” simplicity and these webxdc zips are just called “apps” when regular users interact with them in the Delta Chat app.
This blog post goes a bit more in-depth on what they are, how they work and how you can build one. Which I thought would be interesting for this Technology forum.
Yeah the spec is at https://webxdc.org/ and it is implemented by Delta Chat and a couple XMPP clients.
I don’t use Matrix so I’m not sure.
simple to use
- share a webxdc zip file in your chat
- ???
- profit
Not sure how to make that simpler

This post is about private messaging, not social media.
They are apps that use a messenger as backend, so basically your conversation with someone else has all the state of the webxdc. In Delta Chat that would be the encrypted email thread.
To use a webxdc share it in any of the mentioned messaging apps.
Companies selling digital goods still need to do taxes so they need to know where they are selling their product.

My bank is not allowed to sell my data by law.
If you’d stop eating fish that would not be necessary
a permissionless and fully decentralized version of the Domain Name System. Lacking central servers and control means it can’t suffer outages like DNS does.
Oh nice no more regular outages like checks notes visa that one time 7 years ago for 40 minutes
Anonymous online payment is cool and all right up until you fill out your address so they can bring whatever you paid for to your house.
Name one (1) legitimate use case that is not better served in another way
