Is any of these apps good for phone calls or video calls, or just text messages?
At this rate Canada would probably ban anything they can't get records from eventually if it got popular enough. I hate this timeline.
And Canada is supposed to be “the good guys”.
I started self-hosting xmpp recently, and the calls work perfectly! You don't need to self-host either, there are plenty of public servers.
Arcane chat (a delta chat client) offers video/audio calls as well
Delta has it native.
