Thanks to the freedoms granted by #FreeSoftware , we forked #Quicksy to create #Prav . Otherwise, we would have to write all of it from scratch.
@ravi first time seeing this technology. Found it thanks to FreeSoftware hashtag.
Previously I knew only about Matrix and Signal as alternatives to mainstream corporate-owned platforms.
I see there are some controversial opinions about Quicksy. I'll keep an eye on it, how it develops in future.
@kravemir @ravi Matrix and Signal has more marketing going for them. Matrix is philosophically on same level as #Prav and #Quicksy, but it needs more resources to run. Signal is definitely better than #WhatsApp since it has #FreeSoftware client, so we can verify its end to end encryption don't have any backdoors. But Signal don't give you a choice to move to a different app later without having to convince every other contact. People can easily switch between Prav and Quicksy.
@kravemir As @praveen mentioned that #Signal is verifiably end-to-end encrypted due its source code being available. Similar is true for #Prav and #Quicksy. All the messages are end-to-end encrypted by default using the OMEMO protocol.
Moreover, you can learn about OMEMO here https://conversations.im/omemo/. The link contains a security audit of OMEMO by a third party as well.
Finally, I think collective control and transparency are the key as things can always be improved.
