The thundermail domains are thundermail.com and tb.pro. I’m curious to see how they will compare to the top privacy-respecting email providers today, and how they think they will “provid[e] a better service than the other providers out there,” which would include Protonmail, Tutanota, etc.

I kind of have to sympathize with this commenter. Although I don’t agree that federated social media is very difficult, it is definitely more confusing than normal social media. I would consider myself to be more technical than the majority of people, and even I had a confusing time switching from traditional social media to federated platforms.

If the goal is to have these platforms become more mainstream (which I would love to see personally), then there does need to be simpler ways to use them, or at least better, more concise explanations.

The issue of centralization can be a problem, but in regards to metadata, sealed sender does a lot to prevent Signal’s servers from knowing who messages who, which makes Signal a lot more private than described here.
