If you're going to bash the competition, at least be honest about it. @simplex@mastodon.social
I can't speak to the other points here, but Session does have message padding, though only for attachments up to 10 MB. This is highlighted in section 6.2 of their whitepaper, which is linked on the first page of their website; they also mentioned it in multiple interviews. So they deserve a yellow check mark.
This is achieved by first padding each attachment to fit within a fixed number of constant sizes between 0 and 10 megabytes, then encrypting the attachment with a random symmetric AES key.
It should be a no-brainer to read the whitepaper of the competition before making any claims about them.
I'm happy to be proven wrong.
