    I’d be curious to see what the UX is for people who recieve these messages as regular emails. Does it look and feel okay? Personally I have my email notifications configured pretty heavily around the assumption that they will be sparse and substantial, so the sort of person who texts by hitting “send” as a punctuation mark (most people I talk to on Discord and WA are like this), could be really annoying.

      In DeltaChat regular emails look the same as the encrypted DeltaChat emails except for the tiny green lock icons. Emails from DeltaChat to DeltaChat end up in a separate DeltaChat mail folder so there is no unreadable clutter in the email inbox when using a regular email client. I think DeltaChat could be great for normies because it is not super difficult to install and configure and use, and the messages part looks like the popular chat client WhatsApp.
