To clarify why many people give me Session as an example as an alternative to Signal, let's take a look at the differences between SimpleX and Session.
Session:
- network of federated servers supported by a shitcoin, will not be viable over time and will lose its incentives because like all shitcoin its value tends to 0.
-Not everyone can set up a server due to its cost.
- It has no encrypted calls or video calls, at least in production.
- It works very poorly.
- they keep an id of users susceptible to be tracked.
SimpleX:
- There is no server network as such, it is like the email protocol, everyone can have their server at a ridiculous cost, the servers only have to comply with the protocol so that clients can send messages through them.
- It has encrypted calls and video calls and it works.
- There is no id with which users can be linked or traced.
- The servers know absolutely nothing about the users, and with whom they communicate, since different routes are used for sending and receiving.
The SimpleX architecture is unique and superior to what has been done so far in private messaging.
