So use no messenger? Any decentralized options?

Alternatives to Signal that prioritize decentralized communication.

  • Briar Project (https://briarproject.org/ ): A compelling choice for censorship resistance. Briar employs peer-to-peer messaging, connecting via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Tor, and incorporates privacy features by design. It’s a robust solution for those concerned about surveillance.
  • Delta Chat (https://delta.chat/ ): A decentralized and secure messenger application. It's often praised for its ease of use and integration with existing email accounts.
  • XMPP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMPP ): Less of an application and more of a foundational protocol. XMPP is an open standard for instant messaging, allowing for decentralized implementations – though setting up and maintaining such a system requires a degree of technical expertise.

SimpleX is decentralized, requires no phone number, based on Signal code. Screws up invitations via FB/Messenger though.
