It would be nice to have something Fedi to replace Signal, now that Signal dropped SMS support and seem to be trying to become the next WhatsApp/Discord.
If you’re looking for the lemmy model of open source software on federated servers and you only have to trust the server admin, you’re looking for Matrix. If you want to try something newer and more trustless, check out SimpleX!
Dropping SMS support made it almost completely unusable with most of my contacts, but also they’re trying to become a social media company, as if we needed another one of those.

I have it on my phone! Seems neat for totally anon chats.
Did you talk to someone else on it?
There’s matrix, but I agree making fedi DMs actually good would be nice.
Isn’t it just supposed to be a secure/private version of WhatsApp?
What are they doing that is bad?
