Does DeltaChat allow sending view-once images (i.e. like images in Snapchat)?

    I'm saying, that you are supportive to vibe coding and that you welcome them to . And that you used expression of celebration.

    The empathise here is not about Claude.

    You are fully aware that LLM's aren't popular in this part of the internet, and so you show a different tone here.

    The expression you showed in the deltachat forum is *supportive* to . And that's my whole point.

    Your response in a chat where people also point out their use of openclaw:

    > haha, nice, yeah ArcaneChat [your own fork] is nicer than the Delta Chat client for AI chatbots because it supports some markdown like bold, italics, code blocks etc

              The server that I was using seems to have stopped working for receiving messages, which sucks 😞 but such is the nature of decentralisation 🤷

              It's really easy just to start a new account on a new server - so that's not really a problem - but I'm lucky that I only have one contact that message on the app because "re-adding" people isn't super straight forward. 🤔

                #Signal troubleshooting - very odd support conversation

                Yesterday afternoon I had a quick video call with someone using Signal and then I went to pick up my child from an afternoon summer program.

                When I got home I realized that my phone wasn't receiving any new messages on Signal... but my computer was. Signal on my phone was completely frozen.

                I followed a prompt and sent the most recent log to their support email. Then carried on with my life.

                At some point, 2 hours later, I had a eureka moment: the last thing that worked was a call. Let's try the same thing.

                So I called my mom and hung up (she was in the same room as me). After the call, all the Signal messages that had accumulated during the afternoon magically synched. Everything worked again! And then I found a new message by Signal saying "Welcome to the official Signal release chat!" Ok.

                Glad I was distracted by my child and dinner because when I checked my email, I found a response from Signal support: "It appears the database is irrecoverably damaged. Unfortunately you will need to completely uninstall and then reinstall Signal. This will delete your message history. It cannot be recovered."

                Say what? 😳​

                So I wrote back to Signal that I had fixed my issue by simply starting a call and then all the messages started synching again. I thanked them for their speedy reply and said everything was ok.

                I did the bedtime routine for my child and before bed I checked my email again.

                Two identical emails from Signal:

                "Hello. We understand your frustration. We feel it too" HUH?

                "There is no specific timeline for a resolution at this moment." WHAT RESOLUTION, I SAID I FIXED THE PROBLEM?

                "Please keep in mind we are a small team and have limitations as a non-profit organization. Uninstalling and reinstalling is the only action available."

                I feel for you Signal and I'm super grateful for all you do, but maybe your LLM support system needs some tweaking. Because this has got to be some LLM that misunderstood my reply.

                Thank goodness I didn't wipe 6 years' worth of messages, gaaah.

                Signal has been working perfectly ever since. Still, I'm now compiling a list of people I message on there as a contingency plan, should thing go awry again.

                I've been using #DeltaChat more lately and more and really love it.

                one more tale for #MySoCalledSudoLife

                an email from Signal support that reads: "hello, we understand your frustration. we feel it, too. there is no specific timeline for a resolution at this moment. please keep in mind that we are a small team and have limitations as a non-profit organization. uninstalling and reinstalling is the only action available."

                Alt...an email from Signal support that reads: "hello, we understand your frustration. we feel it, too. there is no specific timeline for a resolution at this moment. please keep in mind that we are a small team and have limitations as a non-profit organization. uninstalling and reinstalling is the only action available."

                a screenshot of an email from Signal Support:

Hello,

Thanks for contacting us and sorry to hear that you're unable to use Signal.

It appears the database is irrecoverably damaged. Unfortunately, you will need to completely uninstall and then reinstall Signal. This will delete your message history. It cannot be recovered.

To uninstall:

* Tap and hold on the Signal app icon until it shakes then select delete.

                      Good news among the bad news!

                      If the recent attacks against Linux kernel+servers were launched against relays, privacy of chatting with is preserved. Why? Because we already assume the server could be actively hostile, and still not read or see any avatar, names or messages.

                      Since the March 2.48 zero-metadata releases relays/servers do not see cryptographic identities, and get no chance to launch "machine-in-the-middle" (MITM) attacks.

                          After I was arrested, I decided to change the way we promote and introduce DeltaChat. Until then, we had always presented DeltaChat merely as a communication channel for when the internet goes down in Iran, and people used it exactly for that reason.

                          But now that DeltaChat has drawn so much attention in Iran, and even someone like me has been arrested for promoting it, I think it's much wiser to shift our content strategy. Instead of portraying DeltaChat only as a way out during internet blackouts, it's better to introduce it as a practical, everyday tool.

                          Honestly, getting back into this kind of work is very difficult for me. But still, I genuinely believe it can be very helpful and I feel I have to do it.
                          My goal is for ordinary people in Iran to use DeltaChat for its actual features and built-in tools, not just as an emergency app. Ultimately, I want DeltaChat to become a mainstream, everyday messenger here in our own Iran at least here and maybe, just maybe, even help people in other places too. But well, that's exactly the big challenge.
