Technology@lemmy.world•Poland directs officials to ditch Signal in favor of 'secure' state-developed alternativeEnglish
5·10 days agothe government said attackers impersonate Signal support staff and abuse this perceived trust to take over victims’ accounts
the arguments they give for ditching Signal are basically present in every messaging platform, and people working in such high ranges shouldn’t be that vulnerable to social engineering attacks
actually, I’ve seen quite a lot of people not actually understanding email they just associate Gmail with it, and use Google’s UI to write and read, but that’s just the surface the same happens with people associating Google with the whole internet concept, like not understanding what a web browser is
I think OP means “to make it more accessible” to non tech-savvy people, because yeah, decentralisation adds a layer of complexity that turns people away, and that’s not what we want I think enhancing the Sign Up process inside native clients would make it easier to give them an idea of how this works


I’m still trying to understand the microblogging “paradigm”, any tips? I might try them again
