Last Notes npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex No, not like Session at all. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex You’re ahead of us - thank you, reposted :) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Communication privacy and hard product choices: https://simplex.chat/blog/20240516-simplex-redefining-privacy-hard-choices.html npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We are upgrading the preset SimpleX relays to the new version - it is compatible only with the apps starting from v5.5.3 (released early February) - please upgrade to the latest version and ask your friends to upgrade too. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.7 released: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex The post about SimpleX Chat v5.6 release with quantum resistant end-to-end encryption and also about how SimpleX network protocols will be moving to nonprofit governance: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Updated "SimpleX Chat Privacy Policy and Conditions of Use" npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Would be good to look at the spec. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex @npub1gcx…nj5z Thanks for the suggestions. We did indeed consider various ideas about how to reduce the persistence queue ID, but the to rotate the queues to another server periodically seemed simpler and providing better metadata protection. The current approach also allows some basic protection from resource exhaustion attacks. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Repudiation is the important quality for any private conversation - it gives digital conversation the same properties as face to face - you can plausibly deny it. And yes, non-repudiation can be added in the context where it is needed. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yes, but in Session it is sadly achieved it at a cost of compromising security - and the recovery phrase is just two taps away, to be copied unnoticeably even by technically incompetent attacker… npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Improving repudiation (deniability) in SimpleX protocols npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex I don’t think you can equate the amount of metadata available to Matrix and Signal servers with what is available to SimpleX servers - it’s actually less than what is available to Nostr relays users connect to. Putting them in one list, however flattering, implies a similar amount of metadata available, which is very far from reality and is misleading. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex The comments on comparisons of SimpleX with other platforms: https://www.reddit.com/r/SimpleXChat/comments/1afgrcj/comments_on_comparisons_of_simplex_with_other/ npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.5 is released – with private notes and group history! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Thank you for all the support this year - it's been epic! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex A talk about SimpleX Chat at BornHack 2023 conference by Peter Stuge: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Simplex Chat v5.4 is released – link mobile and desktop apps via secure quantum resistant protocol. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.4.0-beta.3! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex RIP Chat Control? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex https://freedom.tech/simplex-chat-review/ - a fantastic review of SimpleX Chat by @npub1tr4…2y5g npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat is now available via AppImage hub! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat desktop for Windows is released in v5.4-beta.0! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex 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. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Via export in database settings, but you can’t use one profile in both devices yet npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex F-droid is always a bit behind, you can check our fdroid repo: https://simplex.chat/fdroid npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Working on it - this week seems likely! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yep, there was a broken M1 binary a the one uploaded now is fixed (in 5.3.1) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.3 is released – with new desktop app and local file encryption! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Verified! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Thanks all - got it! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Hm… where do I find my public key for NIP-05? npub address isn’t it, right? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex There is a desktop app beta via GitHub releases but it can only work with a separate profile for now - it’ll be announced soon! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Join via link? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Directory Service and v5.3 public beta are released! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Please answer this short survey about SimpleX Chat! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Can’t upload here it seems npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Any suggestion on the service to host? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat: The New Frontiers (livestream recording) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We are starting the livestream with the demo of SimpleX Chat desktop app and more in ~1 hour (see the previous post). npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Relays are decentralised of course npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex What’s WINE? npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat: New Frontiers – 7/27 at 17:00 UTC npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat – #private and #secure #opensource messenger without user IDs of any kind (not even random numbers) – v5.2 with message delivery receipts and more stable message delivery is now released to App Store and Play Store! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat: v5.2-beta.2 with delivery receipts, favorite chats, and more is available! Also - join our event on July 27! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yes, it’s a static page and it can be hosted on any domain - the app ignores domain part when processing the links. We didn’t split it from the website, but it’s trivial for anyone to split. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We've just revived the demo of CLI from the old website: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex You can use Orbot indeed npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex That’s correct, simplex.chat domain doesn’t participate in the connection, and the only attack possible is via GitHub replacing page code - I don’t consider it a real threat for now. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex My talk at MoneroKon about SimpleX Chat current and future design https://youtu.be/0stN1SjZn0I?t=10572 npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex In any existing browser without changes I mean npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex No web client for now, also it’s impossible to have the same security level in web browser npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.1.3 released: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Incident with iOS notifications delivery (resolved) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Thank you. Whenever users can’t receive messages I can’t think of anything until it’s fixed. The team feels this pain too. We do try to fix issue as soon as possible, and in general last week incident we see as not acceptable even for beta releases, leave alone production. So we’re improving the test coverage now, and we will prioritise delivery receipts for 5.2 or 5.3 - that would reduce users’ and our stress a lot. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.1.2 fixing message reception bug is released to GutHub, our F-Droid and on App Store. Play Store release is in review, and the main F-Droid will be updated in a couple of days. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Message delivery issue in v5.1, possible temporary workarounds until we fix. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yes, that’s what we (= Moritz:) did to integrate the code we had working in the terminal into mobile apps in early 2022, as we also didn’t want to re-write, and now there is much more code to rewrite… npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex iOS npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex This is a classic UX fail, which I got trapped into even though I should now better not to tap again :))) We still have the same in “change address” button - everybody who finds it, taps 3 times (it seems a magic number we try something before concluding it’s broken), with a good probability disrupting the connection 🤦♂️ npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Yes. I suspect that I tapped post, nothing happened, so I tapped it again, and then again :). We had it too in SimpleX Chat. Solved by blocking the button while “post” npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex It was sent three times 🤦♂️ npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We don’t build the product for anonymity (although it can provide it), we build it for privacy of ordinary users from the operator and any observers. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We don’t build the product for anonymity (although it can provide it), we build it for privacy of ordinary users from the operator and any observers. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex We don’t build the product for anonymity (although it can provide it), we build it for privacy of ordinary users from the operator and any observers. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Let’s talk about it and brainstorm! :) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Thanks for such a positive comment #[1] . User traffic almost tripled yesterday from your tweet, some people thought it’s your creation :) npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Interesting idea. I think redundancy support in the client is needed to make it reliable/useful… Re any queue - any sequential transport, e.g. there is implementation that wraps SMP into WebSocket frames, we just don’t use it yet, and it’s easy to wrap in any block transport - SMP uses fixed size blocks. npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Talking at at RightsCon Costa Rica (June 5-8, 2023) about SimpleX Chat – the first messaging platform without user IDs – protecting participant identities! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Poll: Message expiration on SMP relays npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Help us decide what's next in SimpleX Chat! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex SimpleX Chat v5.0 is released: npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex The experimental support for SimpleX File Transfer Protocol to send videos and large files up to 1gb is now available! npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 simplex Hello!
