Potential "strengths"
Why I am making the suggestion
Looks like a promising new messenger, they plan on integrating post-quantum crypto.
Wondering if it has a real advantage over others.
My connection with the software
None.
Just found it while browsing.
[X] I will keep the issue up-to-date if something I have said changes or I remember a connection with the software.
Closed source is a real downer for them. We have good open-source solutions listed and I am not sure there is a benefit to including a closed-source alternative.
Will be nice to see what the audit says regardless.
I think it's time to close this Issue.
