  • I’ll start by saying that i don’t use signal.

    if this is true

    There are some concerns that other people in the comments explained. It’s up to you to decide if the trade off is good enough for you. There’s no silver bullet for this.

    -what menssaging app should i use for secure communications? i need an app that balances simplicity and security.

    Signal is ok. Same as matrix, delta chat, xmpp, simplex. Avoid telegram, messenger, whatsapp, instagram, snapshat, max…

    -how to explain it to my friends who use signal because i recomended?

    Most people mess up the concepts of anonymity with privacy.

    -what this means for other apps in general?

    There’s no silver bullet. All the apps have ups and downs. Most people don’t realize that if a state actor (I’m not talking about police but for example NSA, CIA, mossad, mi6) is after you, they will get you. Usually from a side channel, or from some stupid mistake you made years ago.

    You know that they could just fork it, right? Saying that “it’s american”, just causes FUD for opensource.
