Could you be more concrete? In what relevant way do you think it does not work as an instant messenger? Keep in mind that Delta Chat is not a theoretical thing and it works as well as any other messenger.

You cannot make a Signal account without phone number so that’s not true.

But we are not obliged to share it with our correspondents.

Oh that's good.
I've often wondered how could I make my instant messaging less instantaneous, while giving a new app access to my banking emails.
-
I asked specifically for relevant issues and you just link general issues with smtp that have no impact on Delta Chat?
SMTP is not secure
Delta Chat sends encrypted messages over it so that’s irrelevant.
SMTP is not efficiency
Your phone can run LLMs, it can send a couple packets. Also this “chattyness” can be seen as an advantage as it is extremely robust and works on any network however inconsistent.
SMTP doesn’t have a way to ensure stuff is delivered
Yeah duh? It’s decentralized. You can’t ensure that the recipient doesn’t take down their server?…
Etc. I feel like I’m wasting my time replying to all these because it seems you didn’t even take the time to read them yourself.

Yeah I’d rather not share my identity though. Seems like an odd requirement for a “private” messenger

Right? I did try Delta many years ago, and I really recommend using a new email account for it.

Should definitely be the go-to

Private ≠ anonymous.
-
Yea but not in vc debt so without the incentive to sell out users
-
Imo it's already difficult enough to convince friends and family to use Signal. Delta Chat would be even more difficult to pull off.

You can now also choose to just be assigned a new email account when you start using Delta Chat (only drawback is that you can’t send unencrypted emails with that email account so you can’t use it for anything other than chatting)

The protocol doesn’t really matter when you send encrypted messages over it like Delta Chat. Signal is not private and SimpleX doesn’t have encrypted group chats last time I tried

Maybe. My comment was based off of what i understood from the website
Signal is not private
Could you elaborate on this? haven't heard of this point (is it due to the jurisdiction on a 5 eyes country?)
SimpleX doesn’t have encrypted group chats last time I tried
It actually does now. It's a very solid choice i'd say

As a heads up, the person you're arguing with seems to be using an LLM to generate text.
I would down vote and move on. It's not a real discussion.

You need a phone number to sign up which requires identification in most countries.
Also anyone who know your username can ping where you are at any time: https://gist.github.com/hackermondev/45a3cdfa52246f1d1201c1e8cdef6117#real-world-application-discord

Downvote for what? What part is wrong?

Yep. Noticed when they forked the convo.
