To reply I feel like making the thread public, (feel free to reply private again) Yes, I have a #signal account, I only use it with those who have nothing else. Moxie's arrogance and attitude gives me the creeps; I don't want to promote his product. Besides, Signal runs mostly on AWS infra. Ethical it is not. I have been meaning for sometime to setup a #Matrix instance for the telephony, but it is still a TODO, but I do have a matrix account or 2, and #Wire. as for #Telegram...

... #Telegram became the goto at work which might be kind of my "fault", but the UX is simply superior in IM. Of course, the #privacy bros will have a hernia and say "OMG but it's not e2e bla bla." Truth is there are very few people I would trust to care for my content once it is decrypted at their end. After all, mostly we are talking about #Android devices and who knows what is running on them. Telegram is also not centralised in USA like pretty much everything else....

#Whatsapp, or anything from #Meta, it goes without saying, is unacceptable. Recently, #Mastodon, (well, as we both own our instances), is also an option for person to person messaging. Although I honestly have no clue the current state of TLS, so generally my attitude is:
"What happens at #Internet, stays at Internet".
Meanwhile, it would be good to know your experience connecting to IMS on the #PinePhone with any Altan SIM, not just the tic-omv SIM.
