Comment on My two cent about emails servers field. Over a two decades...
Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 2 weeks agoEncrypted messaging is unrelated to phone numbers. That’s an issue of using apps like WhatsApp (which I refuse to use), and a beef I have with Signal (part of why I really don’t trust them).
Apps have no need of your telephone number, not that it isn’t hard to find anyway.

Of course. These all are different issues. Encrypted messaging has nothing to do with handing out my phone number to everyone.
I can't remember why I skipped SimpleX. I tried it some time ago, maybe it sucked too much battery on my old phone... Should I have another look at it? Respectively, is it any good for someone like me who already uses a Matrix messenger?
