> But if you’re not doing anything wrong, you shouldn’t have anything to hide, right? Isn’t that how the saying goes?

The problem is that "wrong" can be anything arbitrary, and what's not "wrong" today, it can be "wrong" tomorrow, however arbitrary it is. Somewhere it is wrong (illegal) to call someone a "n*zi", even online.

Also anyone who tells me that they have nothing to hide, I ask for their password. For some reason they don't give me their password. Interesting, huh?

Yeah, solve centralization by more centralization.

Also: one reason people use Google is that their services are in one place, users don't have to keep track of n amount of sites, it's all there.

P.S. I don't like Google.

Wire works on every platform (you don't need a cellphone to sign up, only e-mail), and they released their server code a while ago as well, and documentations on how to set it up is work in progress, which means that in the future (actually even now, but most people don't know how to set it up :P) you won't even have to rely on their servers, you can easily self-host one.

Haha, how about XMPP, using Gajim? Good times!

Yeah, but Facebook Lite and Messenger are both Facebook's IM app.

Personally, I would use Wire. https://wire.com (https://github.com/wireapp)
