@ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com @prologic@twtxt.net wow thats impressive. Whats your opinion of delta.chat?

@will@twtxt.net I’ve already shared my opinion(s) of Delta.chaat – But I’ll summarize here again:

• “Abusing” Email (SMTP/IMAP) is “clever” but you end up messing up your Inbox(s) a bit.
  
• Opportunistic encryption is not great
  
• Leaking unnecessary “Metadata” via RFC 2822 headers is not great
  
• a few other things I forget probably to do with complexity of “building” against it.
  

In comparison to Salty.im:

• Easier to operate, build against and stand up (the reference broker)
  
• Full e2e encryption (not opportunist)
  
• Uses simple IndieWeb-style inspired standard “Web” / HTTP as tarnsport

@prologic@twtxt.net yea that’s all 💯 on the mark
