Tl dr It sucks IMO
To use “TL;DR” you actually have to write something of meaningful length.
That’s a deep and insightful analysis which clearly illustrates why a prospective user might not want to choose SimpleX over other options. Very helpful indeed. Please post more takes like this.
Been using it to communicate with a coupla friends and my boyfriend.
Its easy to get people on-boarded and it seems to have the important features. What’s the issue?
There is a sliding scale between security and convenience, and SimpleX falls on the incredibly secure side of that equation.
By doing it the way they have, they have made sure that nobody can impersonate you, except under duress.
Honestly its pretty convenient too, only inconvenience really is backing up a file.
