I didn’t know about this response, thank you for pointing it out. However, this response fails to address the main criticism of the XMPP+ONEMO:

To understand why this is true, you only need check whether OMEMO is on by default (it isn’t), or whether OMEMO can be turned off even if your client supports it (it can).

Both of these conditions fail the requirements I outlined under the End-to-End Encryption header in that other blog post.

And that’s all that I should have needed to say on the matter.

Works really well and the protocol seems so much saner.

Unfortunately, it is not.

Just so you know, Drew DeVault is a pedophile apologist. He cannot even remotely be considered a reliable source of information.

Discorch is open-source.

Yes, but they and the Tor Project are making enough changes that Mullvad Browser can be considered a hard fork rather than a soft fork.

Not really. Mullvad Browser is a Tor Browser fork. WebLibre is a Gecko-engine based Flutter browser written from scratch.

• Librewolf (Codeberg)
• Waterfox (GitHub) (Also available for Android)
• Mullvad Browser (GitHub)

Android:

• IronFox
• Fennec F-Droid (GitLab)
• WebLibre (GitHub)

There is - federation.

Built-in password managers in software like browsers and operating systems are sometimes not as good as dedicated password manager software. The advantage of a built-in password manager is good integration with the software, but it can often be very simple and lack privacy and security features that standalone offerings have.

For example, the password manager in Microsoft Edge doesn’t offer end-to-end encryption at all. Google’s password manager has optional E2EE, and Apple’s offers E2EE by default.

Why is the built-in password manager disabled?

Use a external password manager, it’s more secure.

Against XMPP+OMEMO

I encourage you to purchase a FUTO license: it’s money well spent to encourage FUTO. They’ve really earned it.

You should stop promoting FUTO’s proprietary software. It is also against community rules.

Why I recommend against Brave - Luca Bramè.

This article is a pretty good breakdown of why you shouldn’t use Brave.

rooted

Root is always a security risk, you really should not. (GrapheneOS comment (on Reddit) about rooting.)

out the box

None, probably. Refer to Bootloader Unlock Wall of Shame instead to check which companies do not restrict bootloader unlocking. See here for a list of devices where the bootloader can be locked with custom AVB Keys.

Every time someone mentions XMPP I want to link this Soatok’s blogpost.
