I think Signal made it so Iranian could use the app when their government blocked it through proxy. https://signal.org/blog/help-iran-reconnect/

iodéOS, and support for UbuntuTouch

Even if it’s not Molly could implement Tor or any sort of bridge to bypass these restrictions (such as Signal themselves)

Of course it is, that’s the innovating part of it ! My opinion was that I rather use SimpleX if I wanted to switch away from Signal, if not I’ll simply use Signal not Session. But my threat model isn’t everyone’s.

I think as people will be more educated on cryptography in there digital lives we will have better UX to the point of it not be as difficult as sending on e-mail in the late 80s. Innovation like Bitcoin, nostr, U2F, passkeys etc… will be more accessible over time. Today sending a message on Signal is infinity more easy, secure and private than the majority of e-mails of the 21th century.

Matrix is not decentralized but rather federated and distributed. Also synapse (matrix sevrer) have poor performance, especially when you federate your instance to others.

Yes SimpleX isn’t mature from a UX perspective and that is due to it’s innovative approach. If you need to have device sync and don’t want Signal, Session could be a better optioon to you.

I think that SimpleX is more innovative and ground-breaking than Session.
