Do you use Signal for chatting securely with friends and loved ones? Us too! We endorse it wholeheartedly, and rely on it for nearly all our communication.
But the vibes are deteriorating here in the US, and we should have a communications contingency plan for if Signal goes down.
OpenPGP for encryption through autocrypt is a BIG NO for me. OpenPGP is inherently flawed, read any reasonable cryptographer’s opinions on it. DeltaChat is a significant security downgrade from Signal. I would much rather use SimpleX or Briar.
