Last year, I outlined the specific requirements that an app needs to have in order for me to consider it a Signal competitor.
Afterwards, I had several people ask me what I think of a Signal fork called Session. My answer then is the same thing I’ll say today:
Don’t use Session.
That’s nice you’re mentioning SimpleX but its design is way too complicated compared to alternatives (e.g. Signal) that no one will use it.
Even as a tech-savvy person, I was shocked that I have to scan a QR code to chat. I can’t imagine how it feels for non-tech people.
As a result, who will you actually chat with? 🙂
