Posting here since they did not.
simplex seems to check all boxes for respecting privacy. it doesnt rely on using any identity (no strong selectors like email addresses or phone number). seems very forward-thinking in its concepts.
been selfhosting the smtp relay and using the app for quite a while. If you use it as a private chat for sensitive content, it is PERFECT. Really looking forward to its future development in group chats.
I gave it a try but I think I’ll wait until I can use the same ID from both phone and PC.
Its pretty nice. I am using it for a couple groups. It has some screen reader accessibility issues, but the devs are responsive and fix them as i find them.

Does this use SMS or is it another messaging ecosystem altogether?
It doesn’t use SMS
