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.
Does Signal host its user’s data?
Not sure why privacy-conscious people would be recommending it over something like Matrix. Unless they’re paid off or stupid.
it does not. and the reason is, matrix clients and servers are fucking unstable, and spam is still an unsolved thing.
I’ve never experienced either of these issues.
I’m still a user, I experience it frequently with element x, but old element was no different in regards to that.
I like matrix as well.
