I am not complaining about SimpleX. Just expressing a feature I would like to see. I could try to reach out to the devs about it though.

Monero is a privacy coin that allows for multiple subaddresses.
The reason I prefer having identities (subaddresses) and to recover these addresses using a single 24 word seed phrase is for a simple one-time backup of your addresses. This will not backup anything else.
Lets say you generate a subaddress for every single friend you have and then a few years later your phone dies and you did not make a backup in over a year. The seed phrase will be able to recover your subaddresses. You may not know who address is for which friend, but as long your friend knows they can contact you and you will still receive the message.
If simplex implements multiple reuseable addresses that are generated by a seed phrase like a cryptocurrency, it will be a killer app. I am not against removing the single use one time codes to establish communications, that is a cool feature, just not possible to backup these communications on paper.
Paper backups are considered the most secure since it is not backup using a computer.
Discord is the worst, matrix is not the best but way better than discord
I would like to see brave search become fully FOSS, self host able and perhaps decentralised. That will make it a killer search engine.
Tried searching “monero” and the results are bad but I am sure this will improve over time.
Im not a fan of no identifiers. Sure simplex is secure with it but I would like to see something like simplex that uses 24 word seed phrases to generste millions of unique identifiers the user can easily backup and restore from a piece of paper and not from a digital backup file.
Brave is the best. For a simple browser use ungoogled chromium.
I saw this a few years ago but I am not sure if it will act as a replacement for chromecast
Privacy mainly but to also get away from centralized platforms like youtube.
Joplin is an option but may have more features that you do not need and you can pay for Joplin Cloud if you want to share notes with others.
I second this
There is not official rom support for this device and only can find an unofficial rom build for the 5G version of this device.
Once you retire the phone, I would get a Google Pixel phone and flash GrapheneOS on it personally, even though your buying a phone made by Google themselves.
Wait, so this will allow phones with supported hardware to SMS and calls anywhere in the world, even in the middle of nowhere with no cellular coverage?
If you have a reddit account, you can message the moderators on r/degoogle and ask if they wish to help moderate this community on lemmy.
I have deleted the !degoogle@lemmy.world not too long ago to avoid avoid fragmentation. No need for two communities. I guess !degoogle@lemmy.world will still appear on other instances due to how federation works? However the !degoogle@lemmy.world community is gone on lemmy.world.
Same with brave search and duckduckgo, first result
I wish there was a PGP SMS app since the Apple app store does not allow for submitting an SMS app to its store, but the Apple app store does have PGP apps like a PGP keyboard app and PGP encrypt/decrypt apps and PGP is a good standard in my opinion.
Silence is good but the E2EE feature is limited to those who use Silence on Android, so your iPhone friends will not have E2EE. However Silence has not seen much updates which tells me it is discontinued.
QKSMS is a good basic SMS app that I have used before, its FOSS
If you want to get your phone number off of your SIM card and on a “server” you can also check out JMP chat. The cons of this is that it works over XMPP protocol and it is not using encryption between your device and the server, but your phone number is stored on a server and not on your device which enhances your privacy from phone number tracking. You can also SMS and call on other devices with JMP such as tablets and desktop. I hope JMP chat introduces Matrix protocol a an alternative to XMPP and makes a good Matrix client for mobile and desktop.
Thank you.
