#deltachat is secure against server-side group membership changes but for a very different reason than #signal which keeps encrypted group membership data in a central store.
Delta Chat has _no_ central store but implements a rigidly tested #p2p group membership model where servers play no role github.com/chatmail/models/tre…
Both signal and delta chat are safe against recently published attacks against #whatsapp that can add members to chats, breaking end to end encryption. arstechnica.com/security/2025/…
WhatsApp provides no cryptographic management for group messages
The weakness creates the possibility of an insider or hacker adding rogue members.Dan Goodin (Ars Technica)

in reply to Delta Chat • • •It's good to acknowledge when Signal gets something right too 👍
edit: I mean, it's secure from this attack but Signal's design is still less than desirable
