My man, have you ever worked in tech support? I admire your optimism.

That's my day job and I'm good at it. People understand when I explain three clicks.

This is the problem. You have to explain it. Feel like talking to several million people to get them to use it?

I already made a one-line excessive tutorial in another comment. Feel free to link it.

Maybe when you share it, and explain, and be ready to support the millions of users, then we'll have e2ee. But even then we probably won't.

I already did.

and explain

I already did.

and be ready to support the millions of users

Of course. As I already explained, this sort of thing is my job. Millions of people signing support contracts with me: Awesome! I'll be creating so many jobs. Happy to expand into enterprise communication by offering Teamgram hosting services.

My comment was a sarcastic remark how hard it is to explain to millions of people how not to lose their data when they use e2ee.

If you are in the process of doing it - good job. But right now all out e2ee is for the enthusiasts only.

Fair enough. I've met both good and bad users.
