I have found that Tox is extremely unreliable when used via TCP relays exclusively. I route all my traffic over Tor and proxychains, so I do not have UDP transport available. I am also not having warm feelings about using a C/C++ app that has a history of RCEs and still crashes all the time. Tox probably needs to be rewritten in a safer language (some get a fat stack of Claude tokens and RIIR!)

I don’t like how SimpleX is centralized on domain name based chat indexes. It means that theoretically if someone doesn’t you, they can demand the registrar censor your access to the service. As this has already happened to me twice before, I am unwilling to use anything that requires access to a specific domain name to function.
