Can we please all just acknowledge that desktop operating systems absolutely suck (in regards to security)?
How is a Desktop OS any different from a mobile one? This is where you need to be more specific.

dawg what the shitfuck
So many better standards like XMPP and IRC yet people use Signal and Telegram. I hate marketing.
Signal is an objectively better experience than xmpp, and has about identical security (same with matrix). Irc isn't secure afaik. Telegram isn't secure afaik.
A better wish would be that people in 2024 would stop being fuckign weird about their cell number. Some people don't want to give it out despite white pages being the standard for years (and how the Terminator knows who to kill). Other people refuse to use a messaging app where they can't use their phone to sign up. Some people want to sign up with their number but not give it out.
