SMS is so ass, I can’t even.
Then it's official. SMS is so ass, one cannot even.

Based on what? It’s not like you can immediately notice if your data is being stolen.
Based on the interaction with the app. The features are extensive. There's no ads. My data has most likely been leaked by American companies anyways, so what's the big deal?

You now understood both my point and the OC’s, I hope.
Signal is not federated.

I've been looking for something to track my physical book, music, and game collections. An instance of this might work nicely. Thanks!

I don’t get the joke

It require literally a minute, also creating an account isn't a thing people like to do.
True which is why WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Telegram still reign supreme. Don't forget that its a minute for each person I want to contact, why bother if I already have the phone number of everybody I know. SimpleX targets a different market than the previously mentioned Messengers and that's OK but it also means its a no-go for anyone outside that market. Signal on the other hand is targeting the same market and thus is a viable alternative and for that reason I could convince my friends and family including my grandmother to use it instead.

Also creating account require a minute or more.

That’s what I said, dimwit.

I mean maybe but you could also just say "we did some whacky shit here help us fix" and let the community help you in the effort.

It feels pretty quiet here. At least going by active posts. They're often the same for a while. New is a bit better. Unless it's my expectations that are wrong?

Okay my bad let me make another comment saying
"Signal isn't federated"
There happy?
A little, yeah, oddly enough.

The UI is fucking awful and way too complex, so it's difficult to get anything done. I've tried two different instances and found them both to be unusable.
It's a shame because Friendica is way more powerful than most Fediverse platforms -- they leverage way more of ActivityHub's potential. But the UI needs to get sorted out before it's ready for mass adoption.

(oh btw "We are in X country which is not in N eyes" is just marketing)
Why do you say this? There are real data-sharing agreements between the Eyes.
Doesn't even need some complicated backdoors or anything it just needs to find an OPSEC slip-up
This already happened with kolektiva, unfortunately, but from what I hear they've since strengthened their security.

They understand Twitter sucks now and it feels more peaceful on BlueSky.
