hexagonwin@lemmy.sdf.orgto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Does anyone use SimpleX chat? Why or why not? Is it actually tangibly better for privacy than say, Signal, for example?2·2 days agoThanks for the recommendation!
I’m trying to move a friend groupchat away from discord and there are users on all those platforms.
Are you hosting your own server? How’s it working with multi devices one one account (phone and desktop usually)? I’ve experimented with prosody a bit and it seemed like only one machine was able to receive message at one time, so the phone and computer quickly got out of sync.
Sorry for asking too many questions, it’s hard to find these things easily.

Like, it somehow needs to “load” after loading the page… unlike classic forum softwares that just instantly show the pre-rendered page.
this is personal preference but the ui also feels way too ‘simple’, hard to navigate and has low info density. i guess this is how more people nowadays prefer things to work
