@Nagaram you see some random person post something in social media and the first you assume is they are the "owner" of the app? LOL
> Bold to assume your thing won't have data leaks.
yeah, that is why it has independent security audits, and besides, it is designed in a way where the servers are just dumb relays that move encrypted blobs around, it is anonymous, there is no registration data need to be stored on the server, you can't have data leaks if you don't have data
@nickelson that is up to f-droid and its release process/machinery, nothing that depends on our side, the apk is already available and you can manually download and install it already if you want, it is here (the ones that has FOSS in the filename!):
https://github.com/ArcaneChat/android/releases
that is where f-droid picks it from, but they take days usually
#ArcaneChat 2.43.0 released!

for the ones curious about what 8% of disk usage means here: it is a bit less than 40GB for the whole system, but the users mailboxes only take 17GB
that means: 17GB divided by 10k users equals 0.0017GB (~1.7MB) average used per user! 🤯
also a huge burden admins don't have with chatmail is that they don't have to deal with user account creation and deletion, or user (encrypted) data deletion, everything is automated
arcanechat.me server reached 10k users! 
the server is still using just ~1.50GB of RAM and almost 0% of CPU, disk is at 8% used only (including whole operative system files etc)
it is extremely cheap to host thousands of users for #ArcaneChat / #DeltaChat with a #chatmail relay
I also just check the server like once per month just in case to check everything is fine, but it literally causes near ZERO maintenance cost, no problems, it just works you can practically forget the server exists
