Boosts appreciatedI was wondering, how many people here on the #fediverse/people using #FLOSS stuff still use #WhatsApp ?Because I noticed it is pretty hard to date without it🤣, and it makes me sad that real private messengers are so unknown to other people.

@twann I use whatsapp for the same reason i use facebook... Everyone else uses it and I need to stay in touch.That said if I were exclusively in the USA I'd have no need for whatsapp. Few people in the USA have whatsapp simply because it isnt used much.

@freemo @twann the downside here is that everyone uses iMessage exclusively so you either have to get an iPhone or use sms.

@Casinoslcohol @freemo well I would rather use sms than buying an expensive closed-source and privacy-unfriendly device

@twann In practice so would I. But most people in europe refuse to use SMS for the cost so the problem is there regardless of what I want.@Casinoslcohol

@twann Folks, let us know which "real private messengers" you use daily. I personally use #Nextcloud Talk with my team on a daily basis, but I doubt it can rank as an alternative to #WhatsApp.

@biguenique @twann My family is still using #Wire, mainly because it's the only #FOSS app I could find with #encryption that wasn't some weird, reinvent the wheel type thing, along with a decent interface my older family members could understand. Sadly, Wire appears to have turned evil, so now I'm prepping to make the jump to #Matrix on #Yunohost 3.4, with a self hosted #Synapse and no external identity server. I'm keeping an eye on #XMPP via #Snikket, too.

@Blort @twann @biguenique #Matrix has a #Cloudflare website which is a big red flag. It immediately calls into the question the competency and ethics of that project. #Snikket looks more on the ball.

@dsfgs @koherecoWatchdog @Blort @twann @biguenique Yes, I know. It is a client.

@Br0m3xYes, and for the sake of completeness, a person using I2PD (as opposed to I2P) lacks the ability to host their own service/site, lacks the native torrenting client and other nice things.@koherecoWatchdog @Blort @twann @biguenique

@icedquinn @dsfgs @Blort @Br0m3x @biguenique @koherecoWatchdog @twann anything that speaks i2cp is a fully capable i2p router, i2pd has implemented that for at least several years now.

@icedquinnMaybe we had the wrong idea when we but out of the box it doesn't do things that I2P does.If we are mistaken though that's cool. Its been some time since we brushed up on i2pd to be frank.@twann @koherecoWatchdog @biguenique @Blort @Br0m3x

@dsfgs I2P is the garlic router, though the upstream java has some batteries included.I2PD also does the garlic routing, you have to bring the software yourself.there is an i2p equivalent of the tor browser bundle which iirc ships i2pd now, it's much lighter weight since it doesn't need a jvm to run@twann @koherecoWatchdog @biguenique @Blort @Br0m3x
