   I just installed #deltachat for the first time. I like the idea of using one of the oldest decentralized messaging systems, email, as base technology for a modern-ish chat app.
   They also provide a minimal email service which simplifies on boarding, called chatmail.
   
   Anyone using #deltachat regularly? How well does it hold up for everyday use?

     @navigium Difficult to convince someone.

     @morph yeah, I guess you have to use it with regular email contacts to get to chat with anyone. Reaction time might not be as what you're used to in this case, though.

     @navigium I gave up discussions about. At least most people I'm connected with have Signal.

     @morph well, in my experience it's difficult to convince anyone to use anything except Whatsapp.  Non-walled-garden approaches seem to make it even more difficult for some reason..
