@delta@chaos.social  ·  activity timestamp 3 weeks ago

A lot of messaging systems try to reinvent the email system but many (signal, matrix, xmpp) took over one key traditional design which we actually dropped while retaining SMTP/IMAP compatibility: server-controlled identities.

With #chatmail user identities are cryptographic and reside on end user devices only. Servers are only message relays and have no control over identities or chats, only perform fast message routing. See this fosdem talk by one of our lead developers https://mirror.cyberbits.eu/fosdem/2026/ud2218a/3F9VTU-deltachat-chatmail-relays-multi-transport.av1.webm

@delta Reminds me of SimpleX, if you can add quantum-resistant encryption and easy multi profile management and throwaway (incognito) profiles like simplex then the privacy and anonymity features would probably be on par and I'd consider switching to get away from the far right dev team.

De fedivers de la #MissatgeriaInstantània només n'hi ha dos: #DeltaChat i #xmpp
Però Delta Chat té millor aplicació, de llarg, tant per #iOS com per #Android i també per l'escriptori dels diferents sistemes operatius.
I és programari lliure, descentralitzat, protocol obert i auditat. I és europeu, no el controla cap milionari ianqui.

Right after the #Signal outage yesterday, I took a closer look at #deltachat.
While I knew that it uses e-mail protocols like SMTP and IMAP under the hood, I always thought you have to enter the credentials of your e-mail account simply because DeltaChat is using that account to transfer messages.

But to my surprise, you can just create a profile on a chatmail relay, even without providing a password at all. While I have no idea how this works, I assume that it generates a key pair on your local device. But how is this connected to my profile name? Is a profile name unique? When I uninstall the app is my profile lost?

C'est bien que Signal ait été down.
Ça me force à mettre mon URL de contact DeltaChat en plus de XMPP dans mon profil Mastodon.

I am here once again asking you to switch to #decentralized solutions, the answer is never centralization

if you are going to leave #WhatsApp switch to #ArcaneChat, #DeltaChat, #XMPP, #Matrix, etc.

#deltachat does

- no bindings to public handles/numbers

- no address-book upload

- not do public contact or group discovery

- not have critical persistent server state (!)

Social identification is private, between people though ephemeral #P2P #E2EE messages.

Servers see messages with random sender and recipient addresses, but those can not be mapped to a phone number or public handle. Servers see IP addresses. But you can use Tor, or a VPN, if you want to hide that.

It' not all bad :)
