It seems like I constantly see “X secure messaging option is actually bullshit because it was purchased by Dr. Evil and Y is actually just e-mailing your messages directly to Xi Jinping.”

Is there an authoritatively “best” one I can just…download and setup easily? Is Signal good? Or do I need to solder a Raspberry Pi to the flux modulator of my home Linux NAS GUI, etc…?

    I’m certain that any worthwhile encrypted communication will be used by evil people to do evil.

        it’s a nazi haven in the same way a public library computer is a nazi haven if nazis come in and use it. the library doesn’t check your ideology when you log on, and neither does simplex.

        I suppose I was commenting on the question, not trying to answer it. I’m out of the loop, so I can’t answer it. Checked some articles and it looks like a bunch of neo-nazis switched to it.

        They are also using Google, Windows, Apple, etc. so I’m not sure the question actually pertains, but I guess that’s not my concern.
