In the case of "app", for what platform?
I mean, virtually all of the software in the Linux distribution that I use is privacy-friendly in that it doesn't send data about me elsewhere.
Any platform, the question is purposefully broad
Simplex and signal
What does simple x do better than signal?
Idk all the details, the difference is probably negligible for most people tho
Warpinator also works on phones.
What is that?
It's a device to make phone calls, but that's not important right now.
