CipherEdge vs Signal (Note to Self)
Signal (Note to Self) has been around since 2014 and serves privacy-conscious individuals for personal communication. But it uses server-side encryption — meaning their infrastructure can technically read your secrets. CipherEdge uses zero-knowledge client-side encryption. Here's what that means in practice.
