Does /g/ use Signal? If not, what do you use to securely chat,

>>59646552
Yes,
If not then linphone/csipsimple + ostel.co for voice and conversations.im for text.

if not then whatsapp

>>59646552
Face to face or conversations with self hosted xmpp

>>59646552
No. Signal has a centralized server so they're still in controll over the user
>>59647299
>linphone/csipsimple + ostel.co for voice and conversations.im for text.
Yes

2 apps? Fuck.

>>59646552
Yes

I know one other person who uses it though

Good SMS app though

You know what we never talk about? Asian messengers.

What is /g/'s opinion on Kakao Talk, Line, and WeChat?

>What is /g/'s opinion on Kakao Talk, Line, and WeChat?

Government closed source botnets. You'd have to be retarded to use them.

Signal, Telegramm, Threema, Kik and Conversations. In that order.

WhatsApp, for a special group of people, without sending my contact list and not with my primary phone number.

>>59646552
I recently got it since it now supports phones with no gapps installed. Also made it my default SMS app. I'm fine with it. Now all I need is more than one person using it. WhatsApp is so big here in Germany.

>>59646552
this is one part of /g/ i've never understood

who the fuck can you even talk to with these lame ass obscure apps? none of my colleagues or family uses anything but skype and facebook

>>59651074
You do realize Signal works as a default SMS app on Android, right? The other person does not need to use Signal for you to communicate with them.

>>59646552

I used to be a noob idiot and use it. Then I heard it used GCM push and the like and was designed by a hair grower with a retarded name, and also that teenage faggots on here recommended it.

Now I use Wire exclusively.

Wat

>>59646552
nope, I use wire.
signal is garbage, the CIA shill snowden vouches for it

>>59651115
and it won't be private then, which is the entire point of using it

>>59651074

By influencing other people instead of being a little bitch who uses what everybody else does.

Sup, wire shills.

Marketing hard since your audit pointed out all those flaws in your app, huh?

>>59651668
P sure 99% of the audit findings are patched in Wire now.

Been using signal for years but its been compromised.

I use it because its simple and aesthetic but it doesn't have a Lines icon so I may drop it.

>>59651714
Yeah, and the audit showed that Wire is a poorly cobbled together app that was forced to audit itself and got called out for all those flaws and then was forced to commit to more audits in the future.

Sorry but your app is a joke. It should have been open source from the first day it was announced and it should have been built along with the community.

Hopefully, you guys open source everything this time and stop pretending you are awesome when your desktop client sucks and your security sucked by default until you paid somebody to show you what you fucked up.

Said who? Oh wait, nobody.

Use wire / wickr

>>59651853
Isn't Wickr closed source?

>>59651853
>wickr

no, stupid

>>59646552
Self hosted riot.im for everything

>>59652411

haha, you have to be complete retard to get baited with this, right?

>>59652411
I'm waiting for a good native desktop client that supports Olm to switch to matrix.

>>59651467
Wechat, not weechat

>>59651714

Trading one federated service for another (signal > ostel). What's the point?

>>59657860
Looks like hexchat, but basic.

>>59658559
You can run your own VoIP server and you'll be able to make encrypted calls to people on other servers. Signal is a walled garden.

>>59659549
Very few people want to do that.
