I really like this despite using nothing Apple.
Briar if you're on Android
My mobile stuff is on Android, but Briar desktop (despite being a Java application?..) swears at "unknown OS FreeBSD" and doesn't run.
Sorry, I'm not a dev on the project, just have an interest in secure communications.
Yes, I didn't think you were, just shared ... In any case under Linuxulator with Linux JRE it swears a lot, but seems to work.
Briar is the much better and much more mature version of this.
I actually liked the way this particular thing works, I've visited the repository and it's much like a real version of my toy of two months. (Except my toy doesn't work for anything real)
That's what my friends and family use!
