O app está muito bom e simples de usar.
Sorry for the dumb question but amethist look like pretty good with new improved security
Simplex is better?
SimpleX e Amethist são apps com funções diferentes, o SimpleX é um mensageiro anônimo, já o Amethist é um cliente Nostr.
SimpleXChat is a super secure messaging sort of alternative to signal etc. Visit their page: simplex.chat
Have not been able to get the app to load on Mac
Yep, there was a broken M1 binary a the one uploaded now is fixed (in 5.3.1)
Desktop app! Yes! Thank you :)
Love this service. You guys are amazing. Keep up the good work!
Interoperativity with other platforms 👏🏼
Windows app?
Working on it - this week seems likely!

bravo! Not in cell phones alone doth man live!
Here in Bangladesh neither play store nor F-droid offers 5.3.1 September 25, 2023 update.
What's wrong with me?
Did you refresh the repositories?
F-droid is always a bit behind, you can check our fdroid repo: https://simplex.chat/fdroid
I understand. Google hasn't yet rolled to my Play Store. Waiting. Thanks.
Does notifications works properly ?
I have try to use it several month ago but it never works properly. 😕
Yes for me. Use instant notification as setting. Brings you call notifications for SimpleX. Sweet WebRTC ICE feature. Nice plaintext states while connecting calls.

Between SimpleX Chat and BlueSky, which do you prefer and why?

How can I import my profile (keys) from the phone into the desktop app?
Via export in database settings, but you can’t use one profile in both devices yet
Simplex is not what you want and need. Getsession.org is what you want.
Didn't work well at all, last time I used it. Messages would never arrive, etc. Just a terrible experience.
I don’t think that marketing Session in competitor’s threads is a viable replacement for lost deniability and forward secrecy, and for the fact that whoever has passphrase can read user’s messages without them knowing. So no, I don’t think anybody needs to use session, even Signal seems a better trade off.
how about retroshare with tor/i2p ?
how about briar / berty ?
Maybe is necessary to explain better why simplex is different then others.
