I tried SimpleX but the VPN kill switch on my phone prevents syncing with my computer.

I use telegram primarily as a note taking app with sync features.

Occasionally I send files to friends, so having easy set up for tech illiterate would be great.

    Well signal also has the note to self.

    People will hate this, but WhatsApp is probably the second best and convenient to most people. (But if your friends are willing to get signal, do it.) In fact it was always better than telegram, there I said it.

    Also there’s many great note taking apps that have a sync feature. Joplin for one.

      joplin and all the others who want to run yet another web browser in parralel on your resource constrained phone.

      • you trust how that black box handles encryption, and your messages before and after it
      • you trust that it’ll not datamine the shit out of whatever it has access to on your phone
      • you are fine with the yearly remote code execution vulnerabilities it has through calls and such you didnt even notice, let alone accept
