   Delta Chat (39c3) (delta@chaos.social)'s status on Sunday, 07-Dec-2025 17:40:58 JST Delta Chat (39c3)

   A few things #deltachat apps are doing positively different from #Signal apps

   - easiest onboarding ever; not depending on phone numbers or other private data

   - support for multiple chat profiles/identities

   - decentralized servers, not depending on US-based GAFAM etc.

   - migration from one app/platform and to any other

   - easy multi-device support for any chat profile

   - developers have chances to get their PRs merged :)

   - mini-apps support via https://webxdc.org

   anything missing?

     @mikelgs @delta there is a backup file feature in the chat settings which exports all chats and account data so that you can import it all on a new device/installation.

     @delta there is something that can happen and will happen to new people: uninstall Delta Chat and lose the account. Is there a way to warn people before uninstall? Maybe not, but it'd be great to be able to prepare a text warning about second devices or backups, even offer a link to download backup file...?

     @mikelgs could be an opportunity for @delta to think of a way to let users know about this in a welcome tour of sorts?

     @gianmarcogg03 @delta I know, I love it. But people that we bring into Delta don't know about it or can't understand it at first. When I make someone use DC for the first time I don't want to bother with that. It has happened to me that someone uninstalled and tried to log in... Anyway, that wont happen to them twice 😆
