RE: https://chaos.social/@delta/116505223145222985 All of the advances in #deltachat apps and the growth of the #chatmail relay network, wouldn't be possible without public funds and private donations, an estimated 800K EUR in 2026 ❤️ money goes to ~16 FOSS contributors with no money left for president, board or director salaries 🖤 Signal uses >50 Million per year, Telegram and Whatsapp 100's Millions, and they are all not building permission-free decentralized chat infra and apps, let alone secure mini app ecosystems https://webxdc.org

…the Sovereign Tech Fund, an effort backed by the German government to support open-source software. " I do wonder if or how this could work in concert with other open E2EE messaging, I'm thinking of #DeltaChat or #Matrix protocols or Dan new Sup messaging effort. 🔗 https://www.pcmag.com/news/mastodon-plans-end-to-end-encryption-for-private-messages 🧵 2/2

@yura@udongein.xyz Any decent repair shop won't ask for a PIN and any who does should be seennas a red flag! Like NOONE does this unless they want to exfil your data.Also this is out-of-scope because one could remote-wipe any device (or should've backed-up & wiped it before repair!) as is any other scenario where a user provides access to others!Regardless if you use @delta@chaos.social / #deltaChat or @monocles@monocles.social / #monoclesChat or even #Signal!

New mini-game for your apps gallery! ✨ SUB13: A lane-racer where you need to keep a high speed by picking up speed boost power-ups. Keep as high speed as possible, but do not go above 12. If you do, you will lose speed instead. Beat the 4 opponents and enjoy the psychedelic visuals and chill music! if you play it in a group with friends your finishing position in the race will be shared with the group members! #offlinefirst #minigames #miniapps #encryption #webxdc #ArcaneChat #DeltaChat

I've long been fascinated by the #mesh network #reticulum & the #LXMF messaging protocol built atop it—especially for areas w/o reliable Internet, or where govt. blackouts occur. I strongly believe bridges from LXMF to the open social web & open messaging protocols like #DeltaChat are strategic. I'd love to connect with others sharing similar thoughts.

@mthie@fedi.mthie.com nun, es gibt mit @delta@chaos.social ne passende Lösung samt echter #E2EE (also #SelfCustody aller Schlüssel!) die anders als @signalapp@mastodon.world auch #GoBD / #HGB-konformceinrichtbar ist sodass #Archivierung funktioniert. Weil #deltaChat nutzt #eMail! Ich sehe aber #Signal hier in der Mitverantwortung, weil zentralisierte, proprietäre Lösung = Verantwortung…

@brian_greenberg@infosec.exchange and the only correct reaction is to take #consequences. Any proper #App like #monoclesChat & #DeltaChat can control if, when, where and what #Notifications it spits out…Personally I don't trust #Signal cuz they not only fall under #CloudAct but also locked-in on #aws

@GerhardD@olching.social @tchambers@indieweb.social @arcanechat@fosstodon.org another possible solution is like old era IRC. In the past they use bots called channel guard (around 30 years ago, before they implement it on server side). Those bots is just like ordinary user. They knows who are channel founder/admin and actively auto kick someone who kicks channel founder/admin and reinvite kicked founder/admin. It can be implemented in #deltachat groups without any changes on protocol or MTAs. Not even client app need to be modified. Just invite the bot to your group and configured it. So, anybody wants to code that kind of bot?

Making sure that deleted messages are actually deleted and unrecoverable is more involved than most folks think. The FBI could recently recover deleted Signal messages from an iOS phone because the notifications you see on your phone were stored in an extra database. Apple has now fixed this, also making #deltachat iOS users safer. Few know that so called "forward secrecy" is all about deleted messages becoming unrecoverable, see https://autocrypt2.org for our plans https://www.heise.de/en/news/FBI-extraction-of-deleted-Signal-messages-Apple-secures-iPhones-better-11269038.html

@delta@chaos.social cuz #DeltaChat using #eMail means truly decentralized & #SelfHosting capable comms, including real #E2EE with #SelfCustody of all the [#PGP/MIME] #Keys!

#deltachat user profiles are private and invisible to the public. No one can discover you, or your children, via phone numbers or any other public handle. Chat profiles exist only on user devices. No PIN and no "SMS verification code" ever asked or needed. The lack of "public discovery" also means you don't auto-discover others via phone numbers or other public handles. Getting in contact with others is "opt in": you scan a QR code or click an invite link to join a group or open a chat.

@jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net it's only decentralized if there's no #SinglePointOfFailure. Same goes for anything else: Regardless if #XMPP+#OMEMOIf say 5222.de is down the only ones noticing are their users and their contacts.Or #PGP/MIME.And that is it's strenght. In fact #eMail is so powerful that @delta@chaos.social / #deltaChat is getting popular in #Russia because even if they wanted to, (they don't, obviously!) they couldn't comply with #Roskomnadnozr's #Cyberfascism!
