Since I recently ditched all mainstream social media, I was forced to lose a lot of buddies who were nice to talk to but not friends enough to go to privacy-respecting platforms for me. I only have two mainstream platforms for strictly for family/work stuff. I have IRL buddies and friends but my I miss having internet friends
I decided to use SimpleX Chat for private chats. I love it for having no account system, so I don’t need to give anyone my data. Matrix isn’t the best IMO. You either have to use Matrix.org or buy a VPS to use it. On SimpleX you still have servers but you don’t need to trust them because your username and avatar is end-to-end encrypted. To use it, you need just the FOSS app and a QR/link of your friend, that’s it
About me:
- I speak Russian fluently. I can help with it if you need to
- I love China and Mao and Deng and Xi
- Marxism-Leninism
- They/them
For those who are interested, the website is https://simplex.chat/. There are clients for most platforms. I can send a 1-time link over here as a reply, just paste it in the search bar inside the app.
Sure, I’m down to be friends, send me the link.
You can just paste it in the app’s search bar

The links get distorted after you post them. Even DM. Sadly, can’t fix this in any way
What about creating a group than sharing the group link
