Hey, everyone. If you're looking for a fresh privacy podcast, we recently started a new one called Signal Jam.

Here's a bit about why we made Signal Jam and what we're hoping to do differently.

We even have preliminary ways for you to participate in the project, which you can read about here.

Feel free to connect with us on Proton, Tuta, Signal, or here on Lemmy. Looking forward to your feedback and thoughts!

What alternatives would you recommend?

Matrix is open source, should give that a try,

it could be a bit more user friendly tho

The fact that Matrix was developed in Israel instantly kills it for me.

Pretty sure it was developed in germany

No Matrix was developed by Amdocs, an Israeli company. It has moved to Europe afterwards (I recall UK but might be wrong about that part)

Element is a Matrix client.
