Still sucks you will need a phone number to use it though. Hopefully they adopt meshnet type technology similar to https://berty.tech so people can communicate even when the internet is shut off across all platforms with end to end encryption
My mouth waters at the idea of decentralised, infrastructure-less, encrypted, p2p, mesh messaging
Thanks for pointing me towards Berty!
There's Briar, but I am upset they don't have the bluetooth mesh functionality on desktop at least yet, and I don't know if you can make it work in a VM.
I think I tired Briar, but I either couldn't get it working on android or on iOS
