DelegateVoid<p>As far as communication goes, I really liked <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/bitmessage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bitmessage</span></a> which failed, in my opinion, because it was implemented as a GUI application rather than a library. And then there was <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/tox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tox</span></a> which failed because it was <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gpl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gpl</span></a> licensed rather than <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/lgpl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lgpl</span></a>. And that's where <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/deltachat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>deltachat</span></a> comes in with the almost instant, hassle-free, on-boarding and true <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/e2ee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>e2ee</span></a>. Understanding we have no access to whatsapp, customers are quick to install <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/deltachat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>deltachat</span></a> and avoid all the drama.</p>
𝘄𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗲<p>Потестил значит сегодня <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Tox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Tox</span></a> : <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/aTox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aTox</span></a> v0.7.3 и v0.8.0 для <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> . Что могу сказать:</p><ol><li>Внешний вид: скромноват конечно, для 2к25;</li><li><strong>0.8.0 подключается быстрее</strong>, т.к поправили json с Тох-бриджами (или как их там);</li><li>Иконки немножко получше в 0.8.0;</li><li><strong>Шрифт мелковат</strong> и не регулируется ни в какой Андроид-версии аТох;</li><li>Всяких <strong>галочек и двойных галочек там нет в чатах</strong>;</li><li>Заходит через пару секунд в 0.8.0, в 0.7.3 – может через 7-8 секунд бывает;</li><li><strong>Не надо никаких логинов и паролей вообще для входа. Запускаешь сабж и ты там! Потом можно придумать юзернейм и он НЕ поменяет ваш TOX ID.</strong> Но его лучше экспортировать и сохранить этот .tox-файл;</li><li><strong>Переименовывать контакты самому не выйдет</strong>, но отображаться чужой юзернейм будет у вас так, как записали там..;</li><li><strong>Писать, слать файлы в офлайн - не выйдет</strong>, так как там нет сервера-посредника;</li><li>Звонить в офлайн тоже не выйдет (а вдруг кто-то надеялся);</li><li>Не проверял звонки пока, но судя по отзывам, здесь будут они фигового качества, чем в любом другом мессенджере, разве что с Телегой могут посоревноваться: Телега может у любого из абонентов начать качать файлы стикеров .tgs на сотни Мбайт(!) в любой момент и даже на моб.инете и поэтому там может всё "квакать";</li><li>аТох – это этакая секурная "ася", которой пофиг блокировки, СМС, логины/пароли: скачал и там.</li></ol><p>Скриншоты <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/aTox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aTox</span></a> были в моём предыдущем посте, но, вообще, я предпочитаю <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Signal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Signal</span></a> - видно, что приложение сделано в этой пятилетке, хотя слабые места там имеются.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/DeltaChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DeltaChat</span></a> ? –Хз, я не смог "жить" в этой "скороварке" – "тесно" и не удобно. Если, например, там выбрать три картинки и написать текст, то "улетит" три е-майла... Паковать вложения в ZIP или TAR перед отправкой в 2к25 – ну такое себе...</p><p><strong>БЕЗОПАСНОГО ОБЩЕНИЯ!</strong></p>

Raiden<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.tchncs.de/@kuketzblog" class="u-url mention">@<span>kuketzblog</span></a></span> Die Einrichtung von <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/deltachat" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>deltachat</span></a> ist anonym, kostenlos und sehr einfach: App installieren, Namen eingeben und fertig! Neue Kontakte lassen sich per QR-Code, Link oder vCard hinzufügen. Ein weiterer Vorteil ist die Möglichkeit ein Profil auf einer unbegrenzten Anzahl an Geräten zu nutzen und eine unbegrenzte Zahl an Profilen auf einem Gerät. Außerdem können in den Chats Apps ausgeführt werden, um zum Beispiel einen gemeinsamen Kalender oder Einkaufliste zu führen oder Schach zu spielen.</p>
Raiden<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.tchncs.de/@kuketzblog" class="u-url mention">@<span>kuketzblog</span></a></span> Natürlich sind beide WA überlegen. Aber man sollte nicht vergessen, dass es sich um zentralisierte geschlossene Systeme handelt. Wer sagt, dass sich diese nicht eines Tages negativ entwickeln? Man wechselt von einem &quot;walled garden&quot; in einen anderen. Die Abhängigkeit von einem Anbieter bleibt bestehen. IMHO sind deshalb dezentrale Lösungen die bessere Alternative, auch im Hinblick auf Blocking und Zensur.
