BTW I find SimpleX is great for syncing between your phone and PC. I used it with multiple computers/profiles on GOS and just created an incognito group without history and with disappearing message and that's how I moved stuff like addresses and passwords to my PC. The app is also great for communication ofc
Nice tip, thanks! still haven't given simpleX a try. Mostly because it was hard enough to get family and friends to move to signal :)
It's AMAZING, so many settings, and I use Orbot proxy (doesn't take VPN slot) and configure SimpleX to use it for that extra extra protection (and concurrently I use mullvadVPN for that extra extra extra protection)
Note is that I don't link my SimpleX to my PC but create separate profiles
