SimpleX public rooms work smoothly, IMO, but a lot of rooms have problems with casual Nazism and general rudeness. Some are more moderated than others. I gave up on groups eventually and just use it to talk to people I know.

I don't see how that's a SimpleX problem. People like that are obviously going to gravitate to "free" platforms where they're free to be shitheads. There's no administrative oversight. That's what you want.

Well, considering the founder tweets right-wing extremist posts and conspiracy theories, he's just calling his people home.

I hope someone forks this project lol

When they start aspousing conservative viewpoints through the app then I will object. Until then, I welcome the free and open communication platform that it currently is. Because they are in short supply these days.

Is ðis right? In a group wiþ 6k members, each message posted to ðe group is 20MB of traffic? I suppose ðis is a consequence of ðe E2E design - a message posted sends a message to 6,000 people, individually encrypted and delivered?

Screen shot of a group wiþ 6k+ members, warning ðat each message causes a 20MB payload

Do you happen to know ðe plan for addressing ðat? It seems like a fairly large impediment, and I can't imagine what a solution would look like ðat preserves E2E.
