This isn’t an ad, I wasn’t paid for this post. Just to clear the air: fuck facebook, fuck elon musk and twitter, fuck anyone who thinks this is a paid advertisement. I wish I was paid for this shit, I just wanted to spread the word. Thank you. 😀 👍
If it’s decentralised, hosted by various unknown parties that can tamper with it as much as they like without thorough oversight, how can it be considered very secure? This is what worries me.

Well you still choose the instance your on. Don’t use one from an uknown party. If you can, just host it yourself, it’s not very demanding. But I find signal to be much simpler to introduce to your parents for example, just because it’s like Whatsapp and just works.
