simplexmq VS sydent

Of course https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq

It's about ntf-server-ubuntu-20_04-x86-64 https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq/releases/tag/v5.1.3

Also, it is covered in whitepaper here: https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq/blob/stable/protocol/overview-tjr.md

Please review the whitepaper and / or website home page. I also wrote this post some time ago about why I believe that using pairwise identifiers should be a minimal requirement for a communication system to be considered private.

For more information see Simplex development roadmap xftp branch in github

The source code: https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplexmq/tree/xftp

You can download XFTP CLI (Linux) to send and receive files via the command line here - you need the file named xftp-ubuntu-20_04-x86-64, rename it to xftp.

We absolutely should assume they can be compromised, but as SimpleX servers do not participate in the initial key exchange for e2e encryption, the server compromise will not lead to the compromise of e2e encryption security. I wrote more on MITM issue in this post. Further, the threat model here explains other consequences of compromised SimpleX servers.

GitHub Discussions can also be a great place for support as long as these are regularly monitored. Another option along the same lines is Discourse and the Open Source Matrix which is used by quite a few Open Source and community-based projects.

Tangential: the article notes that Telegram is an “encrypted messaging app”. While this is technically true, it's worth keeping in mind that it's not end-to-end encrypted, so it's less secure in that regard than, say, Signal or even WhatsApp. Telegram does have opt-in end-to-end encrypted one-on-one chats, but those are very inconvenient to use.

For a properly encrypted chat app, including group chats (opt-in), try Matrix instead: https://matrix.org/

I'd love something like the Matrix [0] data model (JSON messages aggregated in an eventually-consistent chatroom CRDT) transmitted over something like simplex for metadata resistance.

Trillian mod here. There's this new thing called Beeper, works on matrix.org. It's not as the good old times, but I'm currently using whatsapp, FB messenger, discord, telegram, signal, imessage and a few more. It's not Cerulean experience, but it's... slowly improving.

I'm trying to change my account provider from "matrix.org" to whatever Element One needs, and for the life of me I just don't understand what values I have to put where to be able to log in. I tried `element.io`, which takes me to sso.element.io but this doesn't seem like the right thing (no credentials work as I expect.
