Wiebitte WAS?!

Well, it is afraid of having the same color in both eyes.

Da fehlt eindeutig eine Banane zum Vergleich.

Hey, jetzt mach doch den Witz nicht mit Fakten kaputt. Am ende gehen die Lurche wieder zurück in ihren Teich.

Ihr müsst auch keine Texte schreiben, versprochen.

As far as I know the SimpleX team adds their servers to the preconfigured list of servers in the app.
So if you host SMP servers for others, you could share their QR code (along with a quick description) in some forum or your own website (I know a hoster of serval private services who also maintains SMP nodes).

For info about hosting such a server, see here.

I see what you mean, so let me try to explain:
You don't have an ID for the account (like a username, random number or even public key) but instead an address for your chat with someone (this is the queue where your chatpartner sends their messages to). So every address is unique only per chat, no unique ID per account or so.

If you still have questions about the SimpleX system, feel free to ask and I will give you useful links.

As far as I know you still need a phone number to create an account. But for connecting you can use the new usernames (and make sure to disable automatic number sharing with contacts in the settings).

SimpleX doesn't need a phone. The desktop app can run standalone or linked to the phone-profile (but the phone must stay connected for that).
They also have a CLI version (which you can use as a central hub for your profile).

You forgot the ones who expected it to be in base 4.

I'm in the "c-h-own" team.
