Good morning Fedi friends!

@_elena Delta Chat is a great way to decentralize the IM. I've been using it years ago, with a couple of friends, using my primary e-mail address. It was great. I'm considering to host a chatmail server.

@jana @_elena exactly. and this is sad. Sure, we can use it with a normal mail server (and it's a huge plus, at least for me) but this will mean a constant IMAP connection from the phone to the server. Which is...okish, but not great.
The alternative could be:
- a linuxulator FreeBSD jail - but this won't support systemd, so some tweaking needed
- a LX zone on illumos based OS - I think this will work. I think I'm going to test this path. -

@_elena @adalanerd other delta people are on the fedi too, not sure all of them are eager to share who they are - I think you already met @Xeniax?

Just yesterday, I got my 90yo mother onboard DeltaChat, joining the rest of my family (we all switched over from Signal a few months back)
She lives alone, independently, and has used email for 2+/day wellness checks for decades.I quipped “technically, it’s still email” as she opened up the app. You could see the gears turning in her head.
“So… there’s no spam?”
“Cryptographically impossible” I assured her.
