@pavot maybe when Delta Chat becomes more popular and a lot of users start asking them for it, they will allow it, in the end it is all a business and they do what is more convenient for their business model

@westsibe to disable the forcing of encryption you can go to advanced settings and change the "prefer e2e encryption" toggle about the black screen and freezing, would be nice if you could provide a log somehow so I can try figure out what the problem is, thanks!

@westsibe "the Cubans" didn't make #ArcaneChat, I did and yes I am Cuban, about encryption, it was not removed, on the contrary in ArcaneChat encryption is FORCED by default which makes more secure than official Delta Chat where encryption can drop to unencrypted and user send an unencrypted […]

The coolest part is that it has a LAN working over #iroh real-time channels. Everyone can assign self an IP address and ping each other, telnet etc. with e2e encrypted forward secrecy connection between machines! 🤯🤯🤯🤯

@maple it is not the old insecure email you are used to and the "leaks metadata" etc, there are chatmail servers that allow anonymous random account creation and avoid metadata leaks, in the case of https://arcanechat.me it is even impossible to send or receive unencrypted email accidentally on […]

@maple #ArcaneChat is an android client for #DeltaChat which is available for #iOS, #Windows, #Linux etc. and now that you talk about young people, in several places people are not even allowed to get a SIM card at all until certain age, so apps like Signal that depend on phone numbers are a […]

@bert_hubert that is why I don't like people recommending moving from #WhatsApp to #Signal, better use messengers that don't depend on US servers and companies like European messengers like #ArcaneChat https://arcanechat.me

@sesivany I really recommend you to give a try to #DeltaChat anonymous login without any phone number or any private data required, you can create as many accounts and add as many devices as you want, all work smoothly no encryption problems with multi-device etc and it has a better interface […]

@nekodojo they can as long as they get in contact via QR/invite links or shared contact/vcard via another friend using the "share contact" option. The restriction is that emails need to be encrypted, as long as your friend is sending you encrypted emails and you can send encrypted emails to […]

@nekodojo the post you link talks about chatmail, which is an email server with open registration at the cost of requiring messages to be encrypted since otherwise people could just log in and start spamming any email addresses, so what you are saying will not work you need to tell them to send […]

@13merleperle.bsky.social Dies ist keine klassische E-Mail, es werden spezielle E-Mail-Server verwendet, die keine Metadaten preisgeben, und die App verschlüsselt auch Header. Bei Threema müssen Sie bezahlen, Ihre Kreditkarte usw. ist nicht an Ihr Konto gebunden, außerdem ist es immer noch ein […]
