But NIP44 does NOT provide most of the important qualities of e2e encryption: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v6.0-beta.4 is released! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex The future of privacy depends on you! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Because I specifically do not want to use any public currency blockchain - I want an accounting method, not money.

We did indeed consider various ideas about how to reduce the persistence queue ID, but the to rotate the queues to another server periodically seemed simpler and providing better metadata protection. The current approach also allows some basic protection from resource exhaustion attacks. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Repudiation is the important quality for any private conversation - it gives digital conversation the same properties as face to face - you can plausibly deny it. And yes, non-repudiation can be added in the context where it is needed. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yes, but in Session it is sadly achieved it at a cost of compromising security - and the recovery phrase is just two taps away, to be copied unnoticeably even by technically incompetent attacker… npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Improving repudiation (deniability) in SimpleX protocols npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex I don’t think you can equate the amount of metadata available to Matrix and Signal servers with what is available to SimpleX servers - it’s actually less than what is available to Nostr relays users connect to. Putting them in one list, however flattering, implies a similar amount of metadata available, which is very far from reality and is misleading. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex The comments on comparisons of SimpleX with other platforms: https://www.reddit.com/r/SimpleXChat/comments/1afgrcj/comments_on_comparisons_of_simplex_with_other/ npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.5 is released – with private notes and group history! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Thank you for all the support this year - it's been epic! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex A talk about SimpleX Chat at BornHack 2023 conference by Peter Stuge: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Simplex Chat v5.4 is released – link mobile and desktop apps via secure quantum resistant protocol. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.4.0-beta.3! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex RIP Chat Control? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex https://freedom.tech/simplex-chat-review/ - a fantastic review of SimpleX Chat by @npub1tr4…2y5g npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat is now available via AppImage hub! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat desktop for Windows is released in v5.4-beta.0! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex I don’t think that marketing Session in competitor’s threads is a viable replacement for lost deniability and forward secrecy, and for the fact that whoever has passphrase can read user’s messages without them knowing. So no, I don’t think anybody needs to use session, even Signal seems a better trade off. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Via export in database settings, but you can’t use one profile in both devices yet npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex F-droid is always a bit behind, you can check our fdroid repo: https://simplex.chat/fdroid npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Working on it - this week seems likely! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yep, there was a broken M1 binary a the one uploaded now is fixed (in 5.3.1) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.3 is released – with new desktop app and local file encryption! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Verified! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Thanks all - got it! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Hm… where do I find my public key for NIP-05? npub address isn’t it, right? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex There is a desktop app beta via GitHub releases but it can only work with a separate profile for now - it’ll be announced soon! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Join via link? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Directory Service and v5.3 public beta are released! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Please answer this short survey about SimpleX Chat! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Can’t upload here it seems npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Any suggestion on the service to host? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat: The New Frontiers (livestream recording) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We are starting the livestream with the demo of SimpleX Chat desktop app and more in ~1 hour (see the previous post). npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Relays are decentralised of course npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex What’s WINE? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat: New Frontiers – 7/27 at 17:00 UTC npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat – #private and #secure #opensource messenger without user IDs of any kind (not even random numbers) – v5.2 with message delivery receipts and more stable message delivery is now released to App Store and Play Store! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat: v5.2-beta.2 with delivery receipts, favorite chats, and more is available!

Whenever users can’t receive messages I can’t think of anything until it’s fixed. The team feels this pain too. We do try to fix issue as soon as possible, and in general last week incident we see as not acceptable even for beta releases, leave alone production. So we’re improving the test coverage now, and we will prioritise delivery receipts for 5.2 or 5.3 - that would reduce users’ and our stress a lot. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.1.2 fixing message reception bug is released to GutHub, our F-Droid and on App Store.
