Second this.
- message delivery can be iffy
- VoIP works well
- you connect with people like a normal app that isn't going to scare your family off, not trying to get them to put in GUIDS
- it has all the creature comforts, attached/embedded photos, markup, attached files, attach pictures, share your location for 10 minutes (I'm on my way), history editing, deleting
- it has concurrent multi device support, so you can get messages on your phone, tablet, and desktop at the same time
- There's a full desktop client (Electron, i think 🤮 but it works)
- the dev team is small and they seem to like to work more on features than user issues. development is slow
- multi-person groups work fine
It's still the best E2E messaging system I've found; the only one my mom, wife, and sisters-in-law reliably use.
I just want them to focus on fixing the sketchy DHT that seems to cause every problem.
