Hi all! I'm working on my cyber security bachelor's thesis and am reaching out to gather insights from users who use decentralized messaging applications.

I would be incredibly thankful if you could find the 2 to 4 minutes to fill out the form. Your experience in the matter is incredibly valuable.

You'll find the survey at https://questionnaire.ink/412758

Your responses are confidential and will be used solely for supporting my thesis. No personally identifiable information is collected.

Thanks!

why is signal not an option?

It's not decentralized, everyone connects to one central server.

Which is why I commented OP should have included the definition for decentralised messaging application. I had to look at the drop-down list to figure out what it was talking about because I was thinking it meant signal, telegram, or WhatsApp

It's okay to not know what decentralisation mean, but it's weird you haven't picked it up yet. Even more so, why did you attend to survey if you don't know what it even asks about?
