Hey, everyone. If you’re looking for a fresh privacy podcast, we recently started a new one called Signal Jam.
Here’s a bit about why we made Signal Jam and what we’re hoping to do differently.
We even have preliminary ways for you to participate in the project, which you can read about here.
Feel free to connect with us on Proton, Tuta, Signal, or here on Lemmy. Looking forward to your feedback and thoughts!
Do you have plans to make a Simplex group soon? You mentioned on the pod it’s where you two first met. Would love to chat and Simplex is the most private option imo.
Hey, there— we’re still open to it, but when we launch it depends on how much demand there is from the community. Realistically, we’ll probably wait a few more episodes down the line before we start one. Out of curiosity, do you use Signal, Matrix, or other platforms you think we should consider?

I use Signal but I keep signal use to personal IRL contacts. I don’t use Matrix as much anymore but if you have a matrix room I’d join in. I’m on the more advanced side of the privacy lifestyle so my communications are highly compartmentalized. Simplex is a bit clunky still but for smaller communities it’s not terrible.
Totally respect the compartmentalization strategy. I’ll chat with Jay about this… maybe we’ll bump up the SimpleX timeline a bit.
We’re trying to prioritize which platforms to start with since the project is so new. As we publish more content and resources, we’re hoping they bring real value to the community, and in turn widen our audience. Once that happens, it would make more sense to open up more channels to accommodate more folks. One thing at a time 🙂
