several people reporting lately that #deltachat has become their main app: They are now spending more time in the chats, also with web apps, than in any other app. It may be a turn to more private communications when social media has become more toxic, obnoxious and dangerous in many places? #deltachat and #chatmail.is indeed about being readily available when other forms of communications become unavailable or dangerous like in Iran or Russia but also in western and other countries.

Don't believe those who loudly claim email can not avoid metadata! They are ignorant of our continuous works on minimizing metadata: DONE: - no phone number other identifying data needed - no cleartext "Subject" - no cleartext "To" - randomized "Date" - no IP addresses - group/avatar/attachment/etc metadata only contained in encrypted message parts Upcoming: - servers to never see cryptographic ID metadata - remove "threading" and auxilliary headers - experiment with Sealed Sender
We support folks who in turn support friends and family in #Iran, to provide resilient private chatting. #deltachat is running pretty reliably and well so far. See also
It's true: the more technical background and pre-conceptions you have, the more more likely you run into trouble with #deltachat 😂 Don't think so much! 😉 image
