Well, I'm asking why you're making fun of Session and asking for donations when you do the same thing.
Also, I never said there was something wrong about pointing out that it's a ""mistake"".
I really wonder why you are almost only talking about donations in your recent replies and not about the fact you are mocking Session in general, here for example : https://fosstodon.org/@arcanechat/116381009753864750
Now, I'll stop replying to avoid just creating a comment loop.
Have a good day!

The thing I am genuinely curious about is that you are taking the choice to critique another privacy focused project when you share similar values, doing that is gonna damage your reputation, and that's not something I often see from open-source developers..

First of all, thank you for taking the time to read my posts.
On the first point about the ArcaneChat relays, I admit I didn't knew about that, and you got the point here.
However, about the donations, Session and ArcaneChat has asked for donations, so that's why I'm pointing that out.
Also, yes, I am aware that Session attachments may not work if it shuts downs, but messaging would still work.

Session uses a network with many nodes. For it to go completely down, all of the nodes must be down at the same time.
If a new user discovers ArcaneChat through these posts, I don't think they'll have a good first impression.
One last thing: you're saying Session got millions of dollars but can't survive—but you also asked for donations in one of your posts.
I find that behaviour extremely hypocritical, completely irresponsible, and unprofessional.

No one will read this, but I wanted to express my thoughts about @npub1zl3…pq2t.
I'm really disappointed: they're making fun of Session shutting down, claiming it's not really decentralized. The thing is, ArcaneChat is decentralized too, but not in the same way. If their server goes down, all users from their instance won't be able to chat again until it's back up.
