Snapchat is extremely popular. Still, there is no FOSS, encrypted, privacy friendly alternative AFIAK.

I argue that could and should take this role. This cold be its great breakthrough.

Read my reasoning here, and give it a thumbs up if you agree: github.com/wireapp/wire-androi octodon.social/media/uQQpJPEQT

@forteller likei said before. i hope #matrix will actually ve more addopted. its developed in more open fashion, it has already great community and a lot of bridges to other networks, plus its federated protocol just like #mastodon.

otherwise we also have #xmpp with great conversations app for android and dino for desktop.

i think we had this conversation already 😃

@forteller I've never seen Snapchat, so I do not know what it is like, but I'm currently trying out #Ring, #Tox, #Wire. Still too early to make any kind of statement, but I believe all are encrypted.

@lnxw48a1 You had me confused there for a little bit. Replies to really old toots should be marked as such in some way :P

Sorry about that. I looked at the #Wire hashtag and saw your post.

@lnxw48a1 I figured that's waht happened :) Check out securemessagingapps.com/ (though it's not 100% up to date I think)

@lnxw48a1 This reminds me to start #Bitmessage to check for messages. Please report about #Tox. I do not like the GUI of PyBitmessage. It's a bad reinvention of an email client.
@veg05 I started #Bitmessage ( #PyBitmessage ) a few months ago, but I must have forgotten to transfer the files with account info when I changed the OS on my laptop. I would be starting from scratch, so I haven't started it since.
@veg05 Similarly, #Twister info was lost during OS reinstall, so I don't expect to return there.
