I guess you want something that's P2P and thus doesn't rely on any servers. Tox maybe? I have no idea what the state of that project is though.

>P2P
Probably not, I'd like a signal alternative, install and play.

You're never going to get actual 100% uptime on such a centralized service.
Juan Butler
Wire
Angel Ward
Then Telegram is for you

Russian botnet?
Pfff that shits broken.
Christopher Evans
>Russian botnet?
People still believe for this shit?
Joseph Williams
Signal works nicely here.
Cooper Jenkins
Tox.chat
Jeremiah Anderson
Uhm..... yes?
It's closed source, how do I know they don't just XOR every message with the last message sent or some shit and call it encryption?
Jayden Barnes
It's actually semi open source
Also why is it banned by the Russian government while you called it Russian botnet?
Dylan Garcia
this
its cool, it werkz, its semi-open source and secret chat encrypts everything end to end.
Durov did it.
Charles Nguyen
Because russians are manipulators and won't find it hard to extort some nerds.
Xavier Johnson
Unironically, Signal.
Best end to end encrypted messenger I've ever used. Plus it's fast, reliable, and looks beautiful.
Asher Phillips
There's a couple open source SMS clients I'm sure.
Jayden Price
Semi open source and going on full open source
Aaron Morgan
Wire
>works 100% of the time
Oh nevermind, no such thing.
Kevin Torres
The new client is 100% closed source
Hunter Flores
You obviously want xmpp. As a protocol, you can host your own server for friends and family and make sure it works 100% of the time. Both major servers are free software as well as most of the clients. There's literally no downside whatsoever to this, just use it and it werks
Liam Davis
SIP also works. Linphone is the shit.
Xavier Lee
Meeting up with your friends at a bar and having a conversation with them

tox fucking sucks, no offline messages make it worthless
Kevin Bennett
Telegrams server side is closed source. They developed their own encryption methods which is a huge red flag. I wouldn't call it secure
Noah Lee
I use signal on iOS but it sucks compared to the droid version. If you don't open it you don't receive your message
The droid version lets you send regular texts and tells you when you get a message
Logan Martinez
How do I host a server?
Matthew Green
Signal and Wire both use Electron framework which is owned by Microsoft now.

So I just install that and run it like a videogame server does as well?
Eli Stewart
Pretty much, yeah. I don't have any experience in it whatsoever but the admins of the servers i used so far said it's not too hard to use. We tested it in my company for a week and my colleagues had no problems in setting it up, so things are probably okay
Gavin Jenkins
Ah great. How do I make it run through Tor?
Mason Collins
I don't know. You can probably ask the owner of creep.im for advice as he has set it up himself
Gabriel Carter
Thanks!
