Preventing enshittificatiom with the "Ulysses pact" from @pluralistic pluralistic.net/2024/11/02/uly…

We consider our efforts aligned: #deltachat #chatmail and #webxdc implement "right to exit" on all levels of our decentralized messaging project.

- deploy your own servers permission free and interoperable with all e-mail servers ("federation mast")
- all apps and libraries and server components are 100% Foss
- interactive chat-shared web-apps can be used in other messengers

@Adam changing the email server doesn't even require backup + restore. You just need to enter a new address in the settings: delta.chat/help#how-can-i-use-…

At this point it only works seemlessly for contacts with a green checkmark, and only if you notify them that you changed your address, others need to contact your new address manually. But we have some revolutionary ideas for the next year :)
