Welcome to the ultimate guide for messaging!

On this webpage, I try to put together a list of messaging apps that are libre

Crossplatform messengers

Messaging apps that work on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, Iphone. Not everyone has a computer, and likewise not everyone has a recent smartphone with a modern version of android or ios. This list also includes messaging protocols, with their respective clients, obviously.

• Matrix
• XMPP
• Jami
• SimpleX
• Briar
• CWTCH

Platform Specific

Messaging apps that are limited on one platform, or work very poorly on others. Not necessary a bad thing, as you will find out, but while choosing a messenger like this, it's good to keep in mind that not everyone will be able to use it. And forcing someone to buy a new device just to be able to talk with you is a bit cringe innit?

• Signal
• Threema
