@therainingmonkey@toot.wales @delta@chaos.social Thing is, Delta Chat started out as a chat-like interface for email and allowed talking to people that only have (or can connect to) an email client - which is the one thing that made it unique between all those other messengers.
Support for "classic" email servers is now a legacy feature with things like subfolder support being removed in the next update. All in the name of "security”. But if I need (and get all my contacts) to use specific servers, why should I use Delta Chat when there are things like XMPP, Matrix, and the likes?

@mbirth@social.mbirth.uk @therainingmonkey@toot.wales @delta@chaos.social Unlike xmpp and matrix, you do not get the usual string of empty messages with the note "this message was not encrypted for this device"
