More and more I am looking through @delta apps and resources I believe this should become number one messenger of choice for screen reader users.
The developers are constantly improving its #a11y. It's secure from the start of using.
Additionally the desktop chat has under gone an #accessibility audit and accessibility issues are clearly documented in public.
I am not sure other messenger style app on the planet has such dedicated commitment to accessibility ever.

@pvagner not the least because @WofWca @treefit @r10s and @adbenitez care for #deltachat #a11y for some years now 💗

@pvagner @delta I am happy to hear this, just trying to come up with a way to host an email server via my home internet. Dynamic IP (should not be an issue), ISP blocking SMTP ports (25 and possibly others) which is where I'm stuck.

@pvagner @delta I haven't tried it yet, but initial docs' reading at its web site suggest it is fantastic indeed.

@clv0 @pvagner @delta My biggest problem adopting this is, I can't find a reliable, IMAp-compatible mail provider who wouldn't ban me after five minutes for trying, in their eyes, fishy apps. Any tips?

@Piciok @clv0 @pvagner did you try to use the default #chatmail server everybody gets when fitst onboarding?

@delta @clv0 @pvagner Yes, it works great for chatting between Delta users. I was hoping, however, that I might be able to chat with my regular e-mail contacts, using Delta as a more convenient interface to achieve that while they use whatever they usually do to access their emails. I believe the default server requires authentication on both sides so Delta needs to be used on both ends.

@Piciok @clv0 @pvagner ah, using delta for cleartext mail requires a classic email provider indeed. It's best to use a separate profile for that, and not mix it with e2ee encrypted chatting.

@delta @clv0 @pvagner Which is where my problem kicks in. I was the most successful with Onet, one of the biggest and best known Polish providers, however they banned my newly created account instantly after noticing I was chatting from Delta, no doubt sensing suspicious activity.

@Piciok @delta @pvagner My provider is posteo.de. I hope they won't ban me when I try...

@clv0 @Piciok @pvagner posteo should be fine. They have rate limits but unless you are entering very large chatty groups that shouldn't matter.

@patricus @clv0 @Piciok @pvagner you will need to share an invite link because the email address it not enough to establish end-to-end encrypted communication. You can get the invite link behind the QR code button. Moreover, we suggest to send such an invite link privately, to prevent abuse by anyone joining a chat ;)

@patricus @clv0 @Piciok @pvagner you can post the invite link publically but some of the MITM-protection guarantees that invitelinks provide degrade then. In this case, somewhere deep in a Fediverse thread limiting visibility of the post to "mentioned users only" would do it.
