more fun with e-mail
“A somewhat weird observation: sending and receiving emails with #DeltaChat makes the whole experience more enjoyable than using a traditional email client. I guess it’s about the modern approach: making emails looks like chat messages.”

Popular en rexións con estrita governanza de Internet
“There’s this nice messenger, based on a simple email, called Delta Chat. I am happy that our Internet watchdog has made this app popular by trying to block it. It’s just like with Telegram that has become widely popular across non-tech audiences after the ban”.
Russian user from 2020 in response to Delta Chat’s rejection to satisfy Russian Internet watchdog RKN’s request for user data, via Twitter
Interface coidada con cifrado forte
“Other things I know I’m late to the party on but delta-chat seems really neat, especially if you have privacy concerns, since it’s really just a specialized encryption heavy email client that presents a chat interface”
American user from 2020 recommending Delta Chat for everyday usage
Funciona cando hai bloqueos de internet
“I was happy that I could get Delta Chat from the website, not just via Google Play since it was blocked in Belarus. It was a bit slow to get the apk, but once I got the app, it worked just fine. We could share some photos and even videos encrypted”

Migramos o sistema de notificacións da empresa
“Yes, our company have migrated all billing/outage notification systems from Telegram to Delta Chat in order to improve corporate secrecy, thus our cameras send intrusion detection alerts to a delta group chat.”

O email sempre funciona
“I’m really happy that DeltaChat exists and that I discovered it. As a very early WhatsApp user, I quit WhatsApp because of privacy and security reasons; I still have broken contacts because of that, I do a lot of advertising for alternatives, but the market is just too fragmented. Delta is THE solution for everyone who allow at least one alternative - e-mail always works! :)”

Totalmente descentralizada
“At /e/ we had lots of discussion about Telegram vs Signal vs … But I must say that the best IM secured service in my opinion is @delta_chat Delta Chat is using emails to transport instant messages: it’s fully decentralized, heavily encrypted and you can reach any contact”
Gaël Duval, Founder Mandrake Linux, via Twitter
Descentralizada pero doada para as usuarias
“People start caring about decentralization. But it seems that for a lot of people setting servers and all to use Matrix or XMPP is too complicated while you can use Delta with just an e-mail address”

O vello email que segue a funcionar

“Considering to use @delta_chat as a default way to start chats! Unlike other systems it empowers people on both end with choice of the agent they want to use + interops with all the mail clients”
