    Doesn’t delta use email under the hood, an insecure protocol?

    You’re better off using something like Matrix, XMPP, SimpleX or Signal.

      The protocol doesn’t really matter when you send encrypted messages over it like Delta Chat. Signal is not private nor decentralized and SimpleX doesn’t have encrypted group chats last time I tried

      Email? So its just encrypted SMS?

      Might come down to the metadata, then, like SFTP vs FTPES or GET vs POST.

        I guess so. It’s encrypted data sent over email from what i understand. Tbf i’d rather trust software built with protocols specifically built for secure and private messaging, and email is known to not be that.
