I read into it before and wasnโt quite sold. But Iโll check it out this time. ๐
I'm on that and Arcane Chat
Just opened it up and looks good
It will get better when they solve the battery draining issue in Android...
If you don't have a need to be notified instantly, you can set your notifications to "start periodically". Doesn't use much battery and better privacy.
They're working on it. It's not actually one single problem, but the cumulative effects of several different things. We've been trying to convince them to integrate UnifiedPush via custom ntfy.sh services, and they're starting to take the idea seriously, which is promising. If they do that, 90% of the battery drain issues will be resolved.
Yes that's where my setting is currently but I miss voice calls like this...
Yeah. I think they're worried about metadata using ntfy I think ,right? Let's hope they get the ball rolling quick.
Truth
Is it better than Signal? Why?
UI wise not yet but protocol wise it is.
It let's you run encrypted groups off your own servers, and doesn't require phone numbers for sign up.
Signal was literally developed on same place where the NSA headquarters are based and until recently received tens of million dollars from the US government, the founder was a director at Twitter.
This is all public information that you can verify for yourself
There's a reason why only Telegram is accused of hiding terrorists and yet signal never (seldom) gets that kind of newspaper attention.
Never trust someone who worked at Twitter. Always do the opposite of what they say.
On this case: stay with the nostr private messages.

Nice, I had to uninstalled it a couple of weeks ago because it was draining my battery a lot, even ifnI didn't open it in the whole day.
But I'll try it again soon.
is that true? i installed it last night. next day my phone battery drained to 30% half day its very unusual. i was wondering whats happening.
According to my phone battery stats, yes
It can be. You can use your battery/power settings to reduce this, but you will not get immediate notifications.
yes... quite good I would say ๐๐ผ

Agree! And I did set up my own server! :) really cool app!
You convinced me to try It. Yes It have some advantages comparse to the existing Messengers. The architetture Is very close tรฒ nostr tรฒ the point that they should merge for the benefits of both projects
Until battery issues are solved it would not receive wide adoption. I cannot convince anybody to use it just because of this. I feel battery issues would be priority number one for development. With signal I have instant messaging without battery drainage. Thank you
VPN of easy use is necessary too
I don't have excessive battery drain with it. How much are you seeing??
Using the always on feature instead of every 10 min check, I am seeing 40%
Ah, I will review that. Certainly the notification choicea for all privacy apps are an issue still. For example - Damus beta is testing out their new notification server today.
All the regular notification methods send that data into big tech Co.
Vomit. ๐คฎ

SimpleX Chat - Invitation
Eu estou testando app de chat/mensageiros pq nรฃo quero ficar na merda na hora em que o verdinho que todo mundo ama, implodir.
Tenho o mesmo problema de quem mexe com "o novo" pois as pessoas nรฃo aceitam mudanรงa. Nรฃo aceitam sair da zona de conforto.
Estou aqui porque tirei a bunda da minha e estou testando alguns clientes para me decidir em qual vou morar.
Entรฃo, estou em busca de um mensageiro e um de vรญdeos.
ร basicamente isto.
Jรก olhei o Simplex e meu pรบblico alvo nรฃo vai usar. Minhas ovelhas sรฃo revoltadas..
Could SimpleX run in a browser tab like the web versions of telegram, whatsapp, skype ?
Just got an invite to chat with you on it! Was it a spam? Anyhow, I downloaded the app and tried to connect through the QR code and that horrendously long link to it but it took me nowhere fast... Would love to chat, how can we make that happen?
I used it once.. will try again

This is wrong in so many ways and should be a separate criminal charge....
My Father is gone, and 6 months later my loved one passed casing severe pain to me - to target me for a fake love scam preying on my vulnerability when I joined bitcoin conference is so wrong.......
www.bulltradeinvests.com- scamners
Liar presents it as this is investment with Nostr
And scamner additionally to fraudulent investment platform exploited his identity to run a romance scam
What improved?
Use it for like maybe a year (?) or so and it never was bad imho
A toggle to hide all the "advanced" options would be nice. It might feel intimidating for someone just looking for a nice IM app with decent defauls.
And inverted my picture forever. Can I truly call it natural chatlist sort order view?
I am loving SimpleX...
