Signal for linux

read it

https://riot.im/privacy

and

https://signal.org/signal/privacy/

signal is not perfect, could be better in my opinion but riot privacy policy is really awfull, they COLLECT alot of data, and it is not needed for the app funtionality, their base is in UK, i simply cannot trust them i see no much difference between them and whatsapp
open source =! privacy ofcourse have opensource applications is a must for privacy, but if an open system collect all this kind of data, is just a joke in a privacy area

in a privacy messagging app i could expect a privacy policy like that

we store:
mail and password for login (well protected with hashing) till you delete your account
used room (encrypted) till you delete your account
chat content (encrypted) till you delete the chat
ip address (encrypted) due to avoid abuse allowing one access per time, this will be automatically deleted when logout

we share no data with other companies and we all we can give to autority according to law is encrypted data

stop, all the other thigs are just rubbish i do not wanna see in online services

i’ve already asked in this forum about it and i got one reply from purism, where i’ve replied with the privacy policy link, then i got no more reply, i understand is not a purism issue but riot, that’s why i hope to have a choice for a messagging app with librem5
