Did using signal with the old SMS feature privided any additional level of privacy or security? Means, no matter what all the SMS are unencrypted and goes through ISP right?

Which means they actually didn't use signal at all.

They used SMS and are still continuing using SMS.

Then they ask me back, "What's the point of stopping one threat when thousands of ways exist to track them?"

From my personal research, I found that their messaging tool of choice is not only linked to privacy and security but also some features like status, stories, and the app design. Primarily the popularity and slop.

Actually, deletion of whatsapp and instagram drastically decreased my friend circle. Now i have more time for myself. I don't think they have a reason to communicate with me. Anyway, am not installing whatsapp anymore.

Stop using SMS.

[–] Crumpled6273@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Don't use SMS. As it is unencrypted, the ISP have complete access over it.

It's very hard to convince people to switch to privacy foucused platforms nowadays.

If that's the case, then i would be more happier to get their usernames atleast. But the situation is way worse than that. They are deeply into whatsapp.

Discord not even letting me to creare an account. The OTP never get generated. And i believe that's for good.

Many open-source developers also effectively using discord as a communication medium.

In the first boot notification sounds, mouse scrolling speed, screen resolution, etc. was not working at all. i thought opensuse was broken.

But, then realized that, i accidently logged into x11 on KDE instead wayland.

Everything works very well so far.
