    Name the apps please, I’d like alternatives that don’t overly compress my media or calls, restrict the type file files I send or the size.

    Seriously. I’m low on options here, and I loathe systems that mess with my stuff without my asking it to.

      I mean Signal is not my favorite but it’s consistently easy to use and problem-free.

        At least for me it destroys image quality and calls are terribly over compressed, audio is painful to me. That’s explicitly why I stopped using it as a default and am looking for others.

        I’m glad you find it good at least, as it’s better than crap like Facebook Messenger, but I can’t stand it as they run it now.

          I mean unencrypted platforms aren’t perfect either but the vast majority of the time it’s perfectly fine or very good. Maybe you have a connectivity issue.

          Do you not have these problems with Matrix as well?
