I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

Literally me.. I've 5/7 of these installed and even have Threema in addition. I don't need more than one Meta Inc product in my life though

I like Threema a lot, but it lacks basic features such as text editing, so I can't imagine recommending it to anyone.

How many contacts do you have in Threema though?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

Only one that I actually talk to

You mean text editing after sending? I would definitely not consider that a "basic" feature - we are talking about E2EE here, editing a message that you already encrypted locally and then sent on its way is by no means trivial - especially with the kind of E2EE that we have nowadays.

It actually is super easy, barely an inconvenience. When you edit an E2E encrypted message, your client simply sends another E2E encrypted message telling your contact what to replace your previous message with.

I think I have like a dozen chat apps installed but everyone I know just sends me SMS instead... Literally the worst option.
