Friendly reminder that Signal—while maybe not perfect—is a much better choice for communication than RCS, especially if you are communicating anything sensitive. Doubly true if you are on iOS or communicating with anyone who is, as Apple still does not even use end-to-end encryption for RCS like Google does on Android.

in reply to Misuse Case • • •@MisuseCase ArcaneChat is just a #chatmail client, you can use #DeltaChat that is the official client it is available in all platforms and it is decentralized, doesn't require phone numbers or any private data, it has much better multi-device and multi-profile support etc.

in reply to ArcaneChat • • •There's a bunch of apps that I want to report for removal because the developer of those webxdc apps puts government propaganda at the footer of those apps. Software should not have your political views at the footer of it.

I hope you continue to improve & make it better for everyone. I like AC a lot just wish that webxdc had better content & regulation.

So unless you can clarify some kinda exploit then there really is no reason why it had to happen. There's absolutely nothing wrong with copying bahdhdh9dhfje@your.instance.net
