Where Soatok goes over why checklists are meaningless when trying to figure out if something is private or just for comparisons in general.

Very good and well thought out reply! Thanks so much!
I’ve been thinking about this for a very long time. The only platform that actually passes all of Soatok’s tests is Simplex. But it’s only briefly mentioned in the article about session
Wait no. I think only server builds are reproducible.
But there is an Android build on F-droid and F-droid does offer reproducible builds, so that’s a way to get them.
A big problem, however, is that the creator of simplex is an antivaxxer, anti-DEI, anti-abortion, climate change denialist, etc. I can understand why people would be hesitant to push a platform like that, given they may also be pushing the creator’s beliefs. I think it’s okay to do the recommendation with a little asterisk of “please be aware that the creator of this app is crazy”.
