I don’t want to see PGP rejection based on usability. So, to level the field at user level we take Delta Chat, which uses PGP. If I understand that correctly.

I have no knowledge of telegram security at all.

    Agreed.

    No audit…then we don’t know.

    Have you seen an audit for SwissCows’ Teleguard?

    I’ve been testing it for a few days now, after a comment about it here.

    They claim to not store your chats, they’re deleted after delivery. To sync a new device requires an encrypted backup from an existing device.

    I’ve tested this by restoring a backup from yesterday to sync a new device, and it only has data from yesterday.

    That said, I really don’t know how trustworthy they are.

      Nice, I hadn’t heard of them until now, either.

      I’m just excited that end-to-end-encrypted services have become in such high demand that we’re seeing lots of different implementations.

      It took a while, but it looks like Veilid finally has a basic chat built in their protocol as well. It says it’s secure, but I can’t find any info on its particulars.
