      If I recall correctly, SimpleX came out of the development of a file-transfer protocol, similar to torrenting.

      It’s been probably a year since I read up on what they were doing, and I’ve been running it on a couple devices.

      I keep it around as a backup chat tool. Sadly I can’t get people away from SMS, but I also use Signal and Telegram. Each has its pros and cons.

      I think the spammers won’t be a problem for this service, only if you’re in a public group, but then I must ask, why didn’t you use incognito mode ? Let the spammers spam the temporary profile…

      Telegram had to remove commenting as a channel, ( well they gave it to premium users ) ( which makes you question their “we care about your safety” claim )…

      But I never saw anything like this, if Incognito mode is on, every account link you share creates a fake account

      Also I think public rooms are limited to 50 or 100, I’m not sure
