    I use signal myself but I also use simple X. I can’t use delta chat because I use proton for my email and therefore can’t use delta.

      Delta Chat is not associated with your email account, as far as I can tell. Am I wrong?

          You don’t have to use a “classic email server”, or even link your account to your current email address at all. The default onboarding procedure actually creates a new anonymous account for you on the default chatmail server. Reading through the site, I can’t actually even tell why someone would want to use their preexisting email address.

              Yeah, that’s when I first used it too, it had to go through your email. Now it just uses the email backbone to send messages back and forth. Also, self-contained webxdc apps you can use with people in your chat, which is kinda cool.
