So you can expect them to be in every town but they don’t have such a dense coverage that they have a full mesh network over a city.
And the thing that is missing is that there are no inter network services like an copy of Wikipedia, LLMs or fileshares.

What apps do you need? Do you know that app support is lacking on GOS or just think it? I would go with Pixel8a and GOS.

rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English2·2 months agoYour wrong, except the rich person part. That rich guy is the WhatsApp founder, who got the money by selling their users to Facebook.
rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English2·2 months agoYou trust the server if you don’t verify fingerprints. Signal makes that too difficult.
Sealed sender is a theater that you can enable but still have to trust Intel, aws and the signal server.
rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English32·2 months agoCONTACTS ARE UPLOADED
Robust encryption isn’t useful if you don’t verify the fingerprint and signal makes that not intuitively.
SIGNAL CLIENT HAS UNFREE SOFTWARE INCLUDED
rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English2·2 months ago- You can easily migrate everyone from WhatsApp to Signal and they don’t have to exchange usernames as most people have the phonenumbers in their contacts. (This has massive drawbacks addressed somewhere else, one lesser known fact is that they would have to verify fingerprints anyway to be sure they are speaking to the right person an not a proxy. Instead of that they could also exchange username+fingerprint initially, like Simplex does it.)
rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English3·2 months agoYou can’t easily selfhost Signal. They engineered it purposefully to only run on Big Tech Clouds with specific Intel CPUs they put (too much) trust in.
rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English3·2 months ago- Yes, kinda, if they have you in their contact books, they get a notification you joined.
rirus@feddit.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why does Signal want a phone number to register if it's supposedly privacy first?English4·2 months agoTHATS WRONG! Signal Server can just do a man in the middle as you try connecting to your contact for the first time. You need to verify the fingerprint manually which is not very obvious and present in the UI. In SimpleX.chat you automatically verify the fingerprint, as its the way to establish the chat to your contact and is included in the way you distribute the contact to you.
