DeltaChat kann mehr als Nachrichten schicken. Mit Webxdc-Apps läuft eine gemeinsame Einkaufsliste, ein Kalender oder ein Spiel direkt im Chat. Kein Cloud-Konto. Kein Login. Nur zwischen euren Geräten. Wie das funktioniert zeigen wir im neuen Video. 🎬 https://youtu.be/tMtmxrt1xtQ #IT4Family #DeltaChat #OpenSource #Datenschutz

Impressed by how well DeltaChat works nowadays! https://delta.chat/en/ I could easily create an account without sharing any details. Connect with a friend's Android based phone & an iPhone. We could videocall & send small apps like a game or a shared list. Apparently I can host my own chat relay & don't need to use someone else's infrastructure, but I haven't tested that yet. This might be my Signal replacement. Well done @delta@chaos.social #Signal #DeltaChat #DigitalAutonomy #DIY #DoeiDag #BigTech

It's hard these days to find a unifying description, or know about all the people and communities involved in #deltachat #chatmail #webxdc developments. One shared sentiment probably is wanting to develop anti-authoritarian technologies and cultures around it, and being opposed to authoritarian tech policy moves in the West, chat control, age verification, prescribing Google/Apple control, enforcing digital app use etc It's also a reason we are only posting on the fediverse bridged to bsky.

A note on "#deltachat is going proprietary with #chatmail relays": 1) It's all based on IETF standards, with configuration and custom integration code fully FOSS and documented at: https://chatmail.at/doc/relay/ with hundreds of permission-free deployments. 2) We know of several alternative relay implementations and deployments 3) Own servers or big email providers can be used (YMMV) However it's fair to criticize our relentless focus on E2EE, and our moving away from email addresses as identity.

I have setup a #DeltaChat group to chat about the #Fediverse in general. If needed we can setup some separate channels for specific topics, let's first see if people are interested at all: https://i.delta.chat/#4FA0E7CE2DEDD12A59CA1104F420F3F7B8F1C69D&v=3&x=7yUr8QW5LNmIRCyxIj4ReSr2&i=SojZqtIVxUKMF9inrgB9PCzE&s=hKpSUto77fIP8o3ll21ZTMrV&a=bve3kaw4c%40chat.in%2Dthe.eu&n=Ruud&g=Fediverse+Chat If you don't use DeltaChat yet, check our server https://chat.in-the.eu (Edit: Should have created a group instead of a channel, fixed that)

I'm officially one of you. Whenever I see graphics about digital sovereignty and moving away from Big Tech, I go: "well, actually" - especially when I see Signal suggested as an alternative to WhatsApp. My first thought: Signal is pretty centralized, #DeltaChat would be a far superior alternative 🙈​🙉​🙊​ Disclaimer: I use both (Signal and DeltaChat) but I really wish I could move all my convos to @Delta@chaos.social. Slowly convincing one person at a time... #MySoCalledSudoLife #BigTech

So yesterday I got my wife Julie to install #DeltaChat so I could test out voice notes, Video calling and so on, Thinking that she'd probably not use it again. Well today to my surprise she sends me a voice not to say that she's going to be late home this morning from her work. I'm very impressed as I didn't expect her to use it again, So that's progress. 😁

Think I'm going to try and persuade Julie my wife to install #DeltaChat and see how she gets on. Also I want to try out voice and video calls privately first before getting adventurous. Baby steps. 😜

Haha ! Julie now has #DeltaChat using the BSD Cafe server. That was easier than I thought it would be. 😀

We just tried audio and video calls on #DeltaChat and it works perfectly as Julie gave me the bird. 🙄🤣

  • it’s a waste of time
  • it’s not possible
  • just use the desktop/mobile client

so you told me many times…

@poes@sok.egois.org @nawanp@fe.disroot.org ada kok buat host sendiri #deltachat: #chatmail. Tapi gak usah chatmail pakai SMTP dan IMAP biasa juga bisa kok. Dah pernah coba. Paling "agak boros" batere kalo IMAP nya gak support IMAP IDLE. Dan create user nya gak bisa dari aplikasi deltachat. Sebenernya masalah quota di nine.testrun.org atau host lainnya itu cuma bakal ngaruh buat offline message. Deltachat pakai email itu cuma buat relay kalo pas offline dan kalo gak salah bantu discovery. Begitu online dan kesedot, selanjutnya antar deltachat baik dengan akun lain ataupun akun sendiri kalo multiple device dia p2p pake #iroh. Tapi kalo mau agak gede quota nya, pake relaynya dari #arcanechat, dapat 2GB

The pattern of fungible digital infrastructure really is quite interesting. By that I mean relays in Nostr & #DeltaChat and transport neutrality like #Mitra Mini & Manyverse.

We don’t think any institution or state has the right to prevent families and friends from private chatting, physically or digitally. But the Cyber Authority China (CaC) seems to take offense:

  • they made Apple remove #deltachat iOS for mainland china

  • their great firewall appears to block some #chatmail relays

  • if you ask DeepSeek directly about Delta Chat, it doesn’t want to talk

It’s pretty sad, really. Everybody on this planet needs, and has a human right to private communication.

Di form permohonan pengalihan pensiun dari almarhum bapak ke ibu saya, ada isian nomor #WhatsApp yang wajib diisi alias mandatory. Kok harus WhatsApp? Apakah WhatsApp adalah aplikasi resmi? Gak boleh kah pakai #signal? Gak boleh id #telegram? Gak boleh id #matrix? Gak boleh id #xmpp? Bagaimana kalau ibu saya punyanya #deltachat sama #tox? Gak usah dijawab. Retorika aja ini 🤣

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
Quoting
Delta Chat @delta@chaos.social
We’ve been busy building and releasing but it’s high time to share some major news: @sovtechfund@mastodon.social is investing nearly €500K into #chatmail This 18-month commitment supports chatmail maintainers keeping the core infrastructure secure and evolving, which is the backbone for: #DeltaChat @arcanechat @deltatouch@social.tchncs.de Parla on Gnome (cc @pancake@infosec.exchange ) and many chat bots A huge thank you to the Sovereign Tech Fund for investing in open, secure and decentralized communication! https://www.sovereign.tech/tech/chatmail
