    Isn’t Signal still centralised? Why use it over Matrix? (genuine question)

      You use Simplex over Signal for improved privacy and no identifiers, not Matrix.

      Signal is still very good though.

        I think SimpleX is the currently the best chat app, with potential to be much more.

      The irony. I believe this tweet gave Signal a huge international boost.
