       @avelino Not that I've tried it, but isn't that the concept behind Matrix?

       @worldsendless mobile clients is very techie and with little UX for non-tech people Having a federation linked to a cell phone number (aka WhatsApp) and being able to "port it" to another federation would be nice

       @avelino interesting idea. I'm hypocritical here since I actually do no protection of my phone number, but the phone number itself is the weakpoint, right? I respect several commenters who hate to regard phone numbers as personal identifiers, and somehow dwell in burner phones etc.Related to this topic might be #DeltaChat @delta , which has all the decentralized characteristics of email itself. The concept is beautiful, although I couldn't make the leap a year or two ago when I tried it.

       @avelino Do try #DeltaChat. Very sleek and robust #InstantMessaging, without the need to part your number or anything.@worldsendless @delta
