OKAY! NOW I think I got @delta to finally work as intended, lol. Took me a bit to figure out how to do that flatpak thing again but it's running. Drop me a comment if you want to chat with me there. #DeltaChat

Another #deltachat release highlight that we didn't tell about yet: De-duplication of attachments and media files. De-duplication means that if you share a larger file to multiple chats, it will only ever exist once in each sending and receiving device's storage.
Same for #webxdc apps -- so if you use the 650KB big "v86emu" app running 32-bit ISO images, it will also only exist once in storage, even if each instance in a chat creates its own realtime LAN. Mini-tutorial https://chaos.social/@delta/114161626183191989

@RandamuMaki@mstdn.social @gmc@friends.chasmcity.net no bigger write up, but if you have a desktop:
Go to message input, attach-app and select "v86 emu" app and start it.
Inside v86 app "Choose file", select an iso (download for example https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.21/releases/x86/alpine-standard-3.21.3-x86.iso) and hit "Start" button. Login as "Root", no password.
Having lots of fun using Delta Chat. I've set up two accounts on my mail server, one for myself and one for my husband. We're both surprised at how fast it is compared to more traditional centralised chat apps like Signal. It's so cool to be able to self-host this and not rely on centralised infrastructure that is outside of my control.
Now I just need to convince everyone I know it's really cool :)

@Sagaliciouzzz take a look at #ArcaneChat https://arcanechat.me it fills all the checkboxes in your list plus it is decentralized and super easy pain-free anonymous registration without requiring any personal data or phone numbers. You completely own your data and can be used in several devices and have as many accounts as you want. It also have in-chat mini-games and collaboration tools like editor, calendar, shopping lists, etc all #e2ee
ArcaneChat is fully compatible with #DeltaChat

I recommend you to check if this service has a rate limit otherwise you might get blocked (temporarily) by VivaldiWebMail.
A perfect example of good software.
Enter email, enter password, welcome to federated encrypted chat messages. Simple.
Easy adaptation too. Invite a friend using either a friendly invite URL (referral link) or Qr Code, they enter their email address, and password, done.
This is easier to use than WhatsApp or Signal. It is called, Delta Chat, and it works with your own email.

I believe I can confirm that Vivaldi Webmail works with Delta Chat. 😇

I believe I can confirm that Vivaldi Webmail works with Delta Chat. 
Did not know this, but you don't need to care about up reputation for #deltachat. 
Makes complete sense why, as it's not using email like a regular email Case in point, very much still outstanding. 
@feld what's this Deltachat thingy?
I'm getting that it uses email underneath it all. But is it any better in UI/UX than, let's say: Element (Matrix) ?
Finally finished moving all my two factor authentication accounts to TOTP app and can now uninstall Authy!
You can run it in Delta Chat, Monocles and Cheogram. It works nicely on multi-device and therefore codes are backed up and available across devices.
Some of the services that work fine:
- codeberg
- mastodon
- github
- npm
- microsoft

I held off for a week, but now I'm officially #selfhosting a #deltachat #chatmail server! Took some troubleshooting to get it up, but nothing too difficult. @delta

@delta I think #deltachat will be the first decentralized instellar messenger with subspace encryption.

@Junicast @kubikpixel Yes, building magic wormhole with iroh direct connections would be cool! Currently magic wormhole traffic is all relayed via a server AFAIK.
Iroh is open source, and you can self-host a relay. And iroh runs on mobiles. E.g. @delta does all of those things and integrates an #iroh relay in their #ChatMail server. And #DeltaChat runs on mobiles.
