    Actually, this and the Signal group have zero privacy. They are all open, free-to-join groups. The encryption doesn’t matter. All it need is anonymity, which I think SimpleX > Matrix > Signal.

      Did you know that you can use Tor or Orbot with SimpleX Chat to increase privacy?

        That doesn’t make it more private as anyone joining the group can still read you message, despite your intended reader. It is similar to shouting out in a big room, and everyone can listen. Using Tor will only increase your anonymity, i.e. finding who shouted in the big room. There are some minute difference between privacy and anonymity.
