I use it for IRL contacts mostly
There are directories for groups, here is the official one (others contain lots of porn)

What kind of group were you thinking of?

Also add bypass paywalls clean 👍
Yes, fennec is nowhere near as hardened/privacy/security focused
Hell yeah. We've been using it as our main comms for almost a year and love it
Simplex chat is a hardened fork that does not require any phone number and can be completely self hosted
You can quickly spin up new identities to give out, I get the network effect with signal is big but simplex is perfect for our use case so I felt like mentioning it
Ironfox is the hardened FF/mobile librewolf
Orion browser on IOS is compatible with firefox AND chrome extensions
Don't think any groups like that exist, simplex is mostly known by cybersecurity/opsec nerds. We would have to be the change we want to see.
Almost all 50501 people use discord and reddit, with a small subset on signal. There's a growing awareness to use better platforms however so I'm spreading the word.
