@eff @evacide @CNN I've quit advocating #Signal, once I learned about how most of the platforms which Signal runs on, collects (AI-driven) "Intelligence" - which can only provisionally be opted-out of, one informed user at a time.

@derekmorr @evacide @eff @CNN I advocate #meditation above all. As to your question - If you are a geek, not a normie, now is a great time to look at #XMPP.

Alas, there's nothing really worth advocating to the normies of the world - I feel it's too early for them to adopt XMPP as a convenient-enough-for-their-expectations replacement.

If the normies *really* needed something *today*, I suppose they could pay an honest, reasonable price for an email address from an email service like posteo.net or purelymail (which support "autocrypt"), then use #Deltachat. Then use #linux (say, #LinuxMint for simplicity) to access this functionality, since it's not AI-patrolled like the other platforms:

@famfo I looked at the "XMPP Software Comparison" page:
https://xmpp.org/software/software-comparison/
...and put my 4 favorite #XMPP clients in there: #Conversations #Gajim #Dino and #Monal. It compares compatibility across many XEPs.

Alas, when it comes to #OMEMO, no distinction is made as to the version of OMEMO.
