I would agree, IF Signal also wouldn't allow backups on Android and wouldn't store images on desktop completely unencrypted... At this point it's just hypocrisy

IMO it's a user's choice whether or not to backup their data. Wire handled this quite well where you could backup your chat history etc but you were required to set an encryption password for the backup.

For reference, Signal is my main chat platform and my main point of contact. Having 2GB of chat histories that could just be lost at any moment is quite unnerving and a major reason for me to look at other platforms...

Compared to old.reddit + RES there's still some space for improvement in terms of UX for lemmy but overall, not too bad :P

Yeah, I generally prefer kbin's UI over lemmy's but given the backend is in PHP I have concerns that it might not be able to scale effectively with its growth.

Not saying that PHP is a complete showstopper but there are valid concerns in terms of maintainability...
