@element
I use matrix extensively but saying signal was breached reads like disinfo. Information so far suggests that people were targeted by phishing which is not a platform flaw.
Dont get me wrong: signal has its flaws but for activist work it is fantastic because it works A LOT more streamlined than element ever has or will. There's a reason I only suggest fluffychat.
Lets work on actually making element equally usable to signal instead of tearing it down. This only serves surveillance.

@haui That's why Element wrote about the difference between "consumer apps" and "government-related conversations." Threema would also have something like that, but as far as I know, Signal does not. This was already a problem in the US, where a journalist was invited to join a group of ministers and received confidential information. Like you, I hope that in the future there will also be [matrix] messengers that are as easy to use as Signal.
