With our #deltachat #chatmail and #webxdc efforts we put all intelligence on the end devices, and architecutally separate it from a transport layer that routes safely and fast but knows nothing.
There are a dozen or more #chatmail servers across many jurisdictions, all safely interopable with each other and classic servers.
Turned out we can dumb down email servers by relying on cryptography instead of IP reputation and ai/spam filtering. And have 200ms delivery times. We are not done :)
#deltachat_desktop 1.48.0 is currently releasing. Lots of under-the-hood code changes and bugfixes.
AppStores, besides flathub already have the new release. flathub will follow soon.
Neue - nicht ganz offene - #chatmail-Instanz: Auf einem #RaspberryPi Zero 2 mit UPS und Wlan ins Handynetz für #DeltaChat
Funktioniert gut. Kosten: 54 Euro (mit "Gehäuse", teilweise noch offen), brauchte nur extra Schrauben und Abstandhalter zum Zusammenbau.
Einziger Wehrmutstropfen: Ohne dedizierte IPv4 geht es nicht, und die kostet 5,16 Euro Minimum im Monat bei Vorauszahlung für ein Jahr.
Und jetzt wird es spannend: Die Frontpage von chatmail soll eine richtige Homepage werden...

We consider our efforts aligned: #deltachat #chatmail and #webxdc implement "right to exit" on all levels of our decentralized messaging project.
- deploy your own servers permission free and interoperable with all e-mail servers ("federation mast")
- all apps and libraries and server components are 100% Foss
- interactive chat-shared web-apps can be used in other messengers

In der Anwendung von freier, offener und wirtschaftlich fair betriebener Software sehen die Lukis eine praktische Verbindung zur #Freiheit des Evangeliums und vieler Narrative biblischer Texte.
Das war auch an diesem @luki@kirche.social Wochenende im Theologischen Seminar Herborn wieder zu spüren.
Ganz praktisch ging es z.B. um #GNUTaler, /e/OS, digitales in Kirchengemeinden, #Grist, #Matrix und Bots, #DeltaChat, #ElementX und die Server-Admin bei @hostsharing@geno.social
Die Location war ünrigens einzigartig

ArcaneChat (previously known as #DeltaLab) an alternative Delta Chat client for #Android is now available in official F-Droid store!
If you already have it you can securely continue to upgrade it now from F-Droid (or #IzzyOnDroid) thanks to #ReproducibleBuilds which ensures the apk matches the source code and not me nor F-Droid is manipulating the binary 🎉

Shout out to AccessNow folks and @Xeniax who helped to convince Meta to unblock #deltachat invite URLs in Facebook. Previously delta invite-links on Facebook were marked as "dangerous" and didn't work.
sidenote: if you send someone an invite-link, they can click it directly after they installed Delta Chat because they will be guided through the "create-profile" flow automatically and then be dropped into a chat with the inviter.
Dreamed of for many years, and now it became reality:

DeltaTouch 1.6.0 is out, finally bringing basic Webxdc support as well as bugfixes and minor improvements 🎉
Many Webxdc apps just work already.
Some apps like Webxdc Store (via xstore@testrun.org) need stuff that's not there yet (add apps as file attachments for now). For a few others, touch input isn't working (e.g., ChessBoard). Will tackle that in the next months.
Webxdc support in DeltaTouch is generously funded by @nlnet / @NGIZero.

I think my preference for IM might be going to #Deltachat for now. I dislike that Signal wants a phone number and is centralized and won't let F-Droid build and distribute a client. Also, I've been using Matrix and operating a server for years and I was a fool it's bad and I want to quit.
Deltachat works with any email account and uses it for everything, it's basically E2EE chat over IMAP and SMTP using a subset of OpenPGP. It's simple, FOSS, works fine, has stickers!
