Thoughts on Session as a secure messenger? It looks fine at a glance, especially not using PII like a phone number, but I haven’t delved into it — and honestly don’t have the mental energy to.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on it?

Without any PII, how does the key exchange works? You have to physically meet? By this reason alone it seems quite private in theory but hard to scale.
Check how good is the usability for low-tech users, it is often the bottleneck for privacy-first applications.

@JsonBoa You exchange a long hex code; those are your respective IDs.

I like Signal

@MammaNeedHummus me too. Just curiosity about other options.

The benefit over Signal seems to be that the person you're talking to can't know who you are unless you tell them. That's not a concern in most messaging services.

@-red Thanks 😊
