Very much still in progress (As you might be able to see :) ). My goal is to make a Nokia phone as if it is made in 2025 (or 202X kinda running out of time there and im not even sure how long it will take me) With USB-C, 4G (5G is not planned for reasons), 1TB+ of expandable Storage. I have already sent my first SMS/Call (a call without a mic or speaker to be precise...)

Phones just do too much these days. And I don't get the feeling they respect my time nor privacy. They are also pretty boring as they all look the same. On top of that the current landscape of "dumb phones" consist of expensive phones you could hang in a art gallery, ugly phones with big ass buttons for seniors or inefficient un-optimized phones running android. I wanna change that.

You could implement XMPP with OMEMO!

There's already bunches of libraries! And standards! So many standards!

we need another standard so it becomes the standard! /xkcd

JUST ONE MORE STANDARD BRO I SWEAR BRO JUST ONE MORE, I SWEAR

XMPP sounds great though. I was also thinking about RCS...?! I have high hopes for that. But I don't think there are that many libraries for that as of now. Either way it will be a problem for future me :)

The difference as far as I'm aware, or at least the biggest difference, is that anyone can implement XMPP anytime, but not anyone can just decide to implement RCS. I think you've gotta get in with the carriers to do that. At least I think.
