- Comment on Authorities urge U.S. citizens to use encrypted messaging apps to combat Chinese telco hackers 2 weeks ago:
Signal Private Messenger is free open source, works on everything. Your grandma could use this.
I have slowly migrated all of my friends and family to this over the last few years.
All of the big ‘encrypted’ messengers like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger use the Signal Protocol under the hood but insert their own shady business and tracking defeating a lot of the purpose.
There are other perhaps more anonymous options like SimpleX or XMRchat but they are not practical nor needed for most threat models.
Matrix is not quite mature enough but is a better option than discord for gaming communities.
Signal everyday. I would not recommend Telegram. DYOR.

I sold my switch as soon as the original SD was announced. Just got my OLED in the mail and couldn’t be happier; easily the best console experience I’ve ever had.

You mentioned LoL. Dota 2 is really fun if you guys haven’t tried it, highly recommend. Biggest thing to get used to compared to LoL is the movement (most heroes have a turn speed)
