Yayy, another chat app! 🙄
Okey, so relays can pass message to other relay? Didn't know that, so thanks.
But then, why not use network like Yggdrasil? Which would be basically like Nostr, but can relay any TCP/IP packet for any app, instead of just Nostr notes.
Why do we even need relays in the first place? Like, if only someone could create a network that could enable computers to send messages to each other on the layer below apps so apps would just be to display and format those messages, not pass them (ツ).
You don't have to agree to someone in full or in none. There is no 0 or 1 here.
Privacy-wise CalyxOS is even better in my opinion.
Tho I really want to run Linux phone.
It may be less private than deGoogled Android right now, but in the long run Android is a dead end.
Windows is the worst thing that ever happened to computer science.
And I don't exaclly mean the product itself, but the mindset and habits that came with it.
The choose is:
Apple iOS: Propably being spied by manufacturer, can be spied by NSA, can't do anything to improve this.
Google Android: Know you're spied by Google, know you're spied by manufacturer, know you're spied by third-party, can be spied by NSA. But most of times you can cut them all (except NSA) off.
They tried to switch to Matrix, but it turned out to be too inefficient and buggy for such big community.
Install Linux.
Install Windows 11 LTSC on virtual machine.
Profit.

Fortunetly there is ongoing work to do that. Still admin sees who you are talking to, but there is some effort.
There is no one best, as we wish there would be. Depends what you want.
XMPP and Matrix are definetly the most based ones, because you are not tying yourself to one particular app and server, they're the common languages. And this is what I would want to use for mass communication and as a base, default.
Signal is nice if those above are not enough developed yet for you. Easy to switch friends into and discover contacts with it's phonebook based nature. But there is no open API for thrid-party apps, only reverse engineering from open source code.
If you don't need calls Matrix has a bridge so you can use both at the same time.
There are also the most anonymous ones, like Briar, SimpleX or Session, there is a lot of them. For me their usage is when two or more people want really private chat and both agree on the app. I really can't and don't want to see them as the default.
Linux was ready for ARM years ago.
Sad that we need to wait for Windows to get support first so manufacturers and chip makers start to care.
I won't be very original, but first thing that came to my mind is Fight Club.
But actually, it is best to watch the second time, once you know what is happening, but I want to experience this plot twist one more time. If someone didn't watch it already, please so not spoiler it to yourself.

With all the tracking that comes with it.
One thing that could help is showing what is going wrong. Do just the icon does not appear? Do some error show up?
But regardless, I see that Librewolf is not packaged in Debian official software repositories (online storage a software packages are downloaded from), so they ask you to add their own repository manually, which for APT case (package manager in Linux Mint) is an overwhelming amount of code to type to say at least.
You say you are a new user, so I can highly recommend that if something is not officially available through simple apt install
to try Flatpak. Official guide: https://flathub.org/setup/Debian, TLDR:
sudo apt install flatpak # Installs flatpak to your system
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo # Adds Flathub, the biggest store for flatpaks
Once it's there:
flatpak install librewolf
Someone using Linux for years might know where stuff on system is placed and not fear not knowing what a command do and how to undo it. But if you don't know what is happening, better to stick to distribution provided sources. Otherwise the equivalent would be like typing some commands in Windows to change registry keys :). I think Librewolf should recommend Flatpak by default instead.
Sorry if this is too much info, just tried to explain things a little more than usual.

They should look at GNU Taler for having it in the future.
