i’ve just seen a comment in a post, in this very community, saying people trust signal because of missinformation (from what i could undertand).
if this is true, then i have a few questions:
-what menssaging app should i use for secure communications? i need an app that balances simplicity and security.
-how to explain it to my friends who use signal because i recomended?
-what this means for other apps in general?
It’s fine as long as you don’t do something silly like invite a journalist to your top secret government group chat.
Or use a third party client that doesn’t have as much scrutiny on the source code and will Leak your message s
man imagine trusting in an israeli signal fork lmao
Would you say Molly is big/trustworthy enough for this to be negligible, or is it a huge risk?
Molly basically is a fork of the signal client that switches out some notification based things (such as your notifications going through fcm and such) and instead lets you use unifiedpush and/or a molly websocket. Apart from this they’re both the same. Molly uses signal’s codebase.
Molly also supports full database encryption and replaces all proprietary blobs in signal iirc
