That looks very closed-source, even though it's French. How did you decide to pick that?
I don't understand it either. Buying european is important, but we should stop recommending weird unknown messaging apps. Signal, although US made, had multiple audits, is open source, vetted and secure. Just because a product is from europe we shouldn't recommend it. Especially if it gives a false sense of security and privacy.
Olvid has been proven secure, used by French president, governement members and many company executives.
SimpleX would like a word.
Fair enough!
