SimpleX Chat is an instant messenger that is decentralized and doesn’t depend on any unique identifiers such as phone numbers or usernames. Users of SimpleX Chat can scan a QR code or click an invite link to participate in group conversations.

It’s clearly proving to be the most innovative technology when it comes to decentralized communication, in my opinion.

    This is why I use Wire.

    Desktop is a first-class app (not dependent on a mobile app), no phone number required, and syncing chats between all your devices just works.

    Wire hasn’t been updated in 2 years on fdroid tho, so I’m eager to switch to something else. But nothing else exists that meets these basic usability reqs.
