Given that the OP didn't know about Signal-Desktop 4 hours ago when I told them (see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10750637 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10750637 ) and was bashing Signal then for not supporting it, I'd say tajzin has at most had a cursory look at it. I'm not sure how or why they feel qualified to blog about it.
I've been using Signal-Desktop since the first days of the Beta and so far it's been a really pleasant experience. Big thank you to all involved!
- exo762 11y agoSignal having all three qualities author is blogging about: security, multi-device cync, and usability basically makes this post and SMU theory nil. This looks like a case of "I have my theory, now lets bend facts to fit the theory".
- newman314 11y agoI'd argue that usability in Signal isn't that great for other reasons, particularly around the contact list. I responded in another thread about this. [1] [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10753881 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10753881
