Really what kind of nutjob makes a post like this? You link a few X posts & assume all of these correlate with your assumption so you slander someone with the title? This is the type of nonsense that fuels political discord & makes people want to draw magical lines & make connections to things that don’t even exist. Then you got the silly willy believers who believe anything blindly & spread this cesspool of trash like it was proven fact in commandmemt stone.
How about we cut the junk & stick to what is factual which is the software & it’s protocol. Simplex in comparison to Session, Element, Signal, Cwtch, 0xchat, hack.chat, bitchat, & etc has the best E2EE method. It is not like Session where one private key ties all your messages, contacts, & files together that if someone intercepts this one key then they got everything of yours. It is self hostable so you can run your own SMP &, XFTP servers you do not need to rely on official servers in order to chat with others.
Unlike most chats where they preach privacy & security but then do things that make you go well that doesen’t seem right. Simplex does care about keeping things secure. Read the protocol on their website do not just take my word for it. Don’t watch youtube & go off what anyone says. People with common sense understand Youtube is an advertizing platform & any tech groups giving reviews or talking about a specific software it’s all about the money. They lie & say whatever to get you to watch like the owner of session does he knows whohis competitors are & after all the backlash hes gotten over his failing points.
Instead of improving & developing something better hes just jumping on any tech groups that offer him interviews & talking smack straight up lying about his competitors then taking it back when called out claiming well I think, I thought. Simplex the chat app is here for you! Make it yours!
i don’t give a fuck as long as its made well and open source. just like I don’t give a fuck if a trans makes something good. its about the software not the person.
I’m sure its 5 users aren’t bothered by this.
What a shame
Transphobic? Anti-abortion? Conservative? Climatosceptic?
THAT’S AWESOME!!! I went and followed him on X because of this post.
I’m surprised so many of you are hateful of people with his views. Don’t you believe in diversity, equity, and inclusion? Or do you insist everyone has to agree with your weird new sh!t?
Really, it’s weird (twisted) for anyone to insist everyone else believes a certain dude is a babe, or that we should be allowed to kill unborn children, or that cow farts are going to kill the planet. Sober up, man. Get real. Get based.
I agree with everyone here, but it does show the character of this man. And when people have these types of feelings, well, they don’t operate off of principle. Anything on the internet is not really private anyways.

I don’t believe they will turn away from having a privacy respecting and encrypted messaging app, and their beliefs might be their reason to
You thought he founded SimpleX to chat with his church friends?
Privacy is important for everyone. The assumption that someone who writes a privacy focused application has nefarious intent is a sinister implication that fascists want you to adopt, internalize, and believe.
Do you believe it?
“transphobic, anti-abortion, conservative”
“church friends” checks out well to me.When viewed this way… yes haha
Do you believe the same thing applies to Signal and Matrix? I disagree
Quite litterally an ad hominem fallacy. Regardless of the founder’s questionable moral character, SimpleX is still one of the most private and useful messengers out there. You can’t deny the quality, especially when all the code is open source and auditable by anyone who wants to put real effort into discrediting it.
I never questioned it and actually believe it’s currently one of the best (minus some problems like link previews not being generated through a proxy, multi device sync, or file compression)
I’m just disappointed with the news. I would have gladly donated to help with development but now that I know who I would be funding, I’m not so sure anymore
