matrix stays winning
Matrix isn't secure depending on how you use it. It also doesn't protect individual identities terribly well.
Simplex Chat would be the better option however the main Simplex Chat server and matrix server could end up blocked as well.
plenty of servers for both though
Couldn't they block them too? Monitor the domains people connect to, check if it's a Matrix server and block it if it is.
You don't need any blockchain there, you need mixnets and hidden services like with tor and i2p
What would a blockchain provide here?
