Install nothing, turn your PC off and sit quietly.

that's his point

I've been using Signal with my gf and my brother for a year now. Works well, nothing to complain about. Doesn't have many users though
Alexander Price
What's your solution then?
Jose Murphy
if it was his point his post would read

app not compromised by feds

How is it compromised?
They got hold of his phone and got it open, at that point the encryption tech between two users doesn't matter.

XMPP. I got an ejabberd server running on a VPS in a few hours, it's not that hard.
Jonathan Walker
It has a lot of users, but it's based on your contacts so that just means that not a lot of people in your contacts use it.
You can to convince more by explaining that they can use it as an SMS app as well, that usually seems to work. And you can probably also mention that it looks exactly like a normal SMS app or FB Messenger.

Yeah it's compromised

Does anyone here actually uses Matrix? It seems like a lot of work to get a groupchat going since you have to either selfhost your homeserver or be at the mercy of the public matrix.org homeserver, at least compared to Signal, that is more plug n play.
Brody Robinson
Signal, because of its ease of use. Much easier to convince friends to use it, because they don't have to create a new account (well they do but a phone number is more user friendly).
Matrix is cool too, but you'll only use it for shit you'd do over irc, none of your friends would likely join it.
Joshua Cook
Well that's what I meant, everyone I know uses WhatsApp or Messenger while barely anyone uses Signal, so I'd have to go through the hassle to get them to switch and even then it couldn't replace WA or Messenger because of just how much those are used. Like 70% of my messaging is with my brother and girlfriend so I'm fine with the situation now.
>They can use it as SMS app as well
Nobody here gives two shits about SMS. Handy feature for those who use it though
Isaac Watson
The messages are encrypted by the clients, the server just passes them along.
Jayden Foster
do I really have to explain it to you?
that user meant that because the feds laid out every popular messaging app out there and made signal seem like the most private that it would make people switch over to it and bam you have a honeypot.
I personally don't believe this is the case, but I'm just getting that poster's point through.

this post glows. you run your own matrix server, pretty much every other "secure messenger" relies on centralized servers.
