SimpleX by default uses their call relay. You can turn that off. Signal uses their call relay for unknown contacts. You can turn it on for all.

What would be the advantage of distributing packages built and signed by F-Droid elsewhere when the apps are functionally the same?

2024-10-12 03:11:50

- reply

f-droid.org and Play Store release should have a difference package name to avoid conflicts though

> Calyx also has a great built in Firewall app to cut off apps from the internet
Datura Firewall is a fancy frontend for the leaky LineageOS network toggles. They don't block indirect network access like the GrapheneOS network permission toggles. Can be bypassed by apps using DownloadManager. It also has other features it claims to provide which it can't.
We could have an endless debate about theoretical hardware backdors, but what I wrote above can be proven.

AI is a nonsense generator.
GrapheneOS and CalyxOS are very different. GrapheneOS is a hardened OS with substantial privacy/security improvements:
https://grapheneos.org/features
CalyxOS is not a hardened OS. It greatly reduces security vs. AOSP via added attack surface, rolled back security and slow patches.
Compatibility with Android apps is also much different. GrapheneOS provides their sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer:
https://grapheneos.org/usage#sandboxed-google-play
Can run vast majority of Play Store apps on GrapheneOS, but not CalyxOS with the far more limited and less secure microG approach.
Https://eylenburg.github.io/android_comparison.htm is a third party comparison between different alternate mobile operating systems. It could include many more privacy/security features but it's a good starting point.
https://privsec.dev/posts/android/choosing-your-android-based-operating-system/ is an article with more long form comparisons between OSes.
GrapheneOS are the only ones developing a hardened OS. DivestOS is far more similar to GrapheneOS and uses some of their patches, but aims for broader device support by being based on LineageOS. DivestOS removed a lot of the mentions of GrapheneOS and even directly recommending it, due to the libel spread about GrapheneOS' developers. CalyxOS is putting users at risk by pretending to provide features it can't like it's firewall app which is just marketing fluff for the faulty LineageOS network toggles. It's on the same level as Freedom Phone. CalyxOS isn't similar at all and it's a misconception in the privacy-oriented Bitcoin and Monero community that they're making similar things. PureOS is just desktop Linux with a mobile UI. It comes along with all the issues of what it's based on.

The goal is still to reduce trust in servers, and SimpleX does that better than any other private messaging network, but having anonymous node operators doesn't improve privacy, as they've got no incentive not to store the user data they can access.
You should use Tor if you require transport layer security, but that's not a solution for everyone.

Sadly a lot of the developers see it as competition rather than something that can coexist. I believe it would be beneficial for both platforms too. User safety is being put at risk with the current system.

2024-09-17 02:26:18

- reply

The developer has said they think SimpleX is more private, but I think Nostr clients in general need to add some big text with warning symbols and sirens to warn about the insecurity of DMs. Also, this should be added: https://github.com/retrnull/garnet/issues/8 ⚠️🚨

This points system is punishing apps for for completely avoiding privacy/security problems. If it's not applicable then it should be counted as green, such as:
-Do you get notified if a contact's fingerprint changes?
-Is personal information (mobile number, contact list, etc.) hashed?
-Are messages encrypted when backed up to the cloud?

This is what I mean. Cashu has lots of support, but not FediMints. There's a single custodian that can steal your coins. FediMints has multiple custodians, so it seems clearly better, but it has very little support. I might be missing something, but it seems very weird.

Ok. It seems better than cashu because there's multiple custodians supposedly, idk how it works but there's far less support than cashu. Only mutiny wallet and fedi support it, mutiny wallet is shutting down..

You're really just going to harm the safety of users and ultimately the adoption of Nostr if you see SimpleX as a competitor rather than an ally.

2024-08-23 16:25:36

Don't make yourself look stupid. Every client doesn't need to support DMs, and shouldn't as most devs aren't qualified. Add field for SimpleX addresses and encourage people to use it instead of Nostr DMs, deprecate all the other DM systems. Listen to Jack. #nevent1q…wqle

It's possible that Satoshi came up with the term cryptocurrency, he branded Bitcoin as cryptocurrency at least.

There's already @npub1exv…d828 which uses Signal's state of the art double ratchet algorithm.

2024-06-20 21:19:52

I have a proposal to fix Nostr DMs;
Don't, its not feasible for 40+ clients to implement state of the art messaging encryption properly so it's best to leave it to specialized messaging apps which may or may not be built on top of Nostr.
Instead there should be a contact info field on profile where people can link to email, Signal, SimpleX, or anything else and clients will use this to open the correct app when you press the DM button.

If you turn on airplane mode it disables the cellular modem, also if the modem is compromised it can't affect the OS because it's isolated via IOMMU. The only thing a compromised modem could do is ignore airplane mode commands.
