  • Hi team,
    I carefully read and tested the proposed approach with Group Chats. Nice, but useless if I am the RECIPIENT of a message.
    Being able to address more than one person at a time is the very minimum and trivial.
    The interesting piece is to allow my contacts to address me, without knowing on which device I am currently active.
    What do you propose here ? Use Whatsapp to notify me that I should look into Threema for their message :) ?
    I am more than happy to learn that I missed a feature ...
    TXs and cheers
    Michael

    PS: in case I did not miss a feature, do NOT hide behind "principles". It should be the USER's choice to disclose a group composition to the Threema server - IF they wish. Not Threema dictating that such must not be done. Simply tell the users the consequnce of their choice.
    You crossed the bridge of disclosure of private data and relations already anyway, by allowing to associate phone numbers and mail addresses. Rightfully so. And you offer anonymous mode in parallel - very much appreciated. Again: give the users their choice, not your's.

    Actually the server does never know which contacts belong to a group in Threema, because the contact management is done offline.

    The other thing you suggest might be the distribution lists. With them you can send messages to a list of contact. The recipients will just get this message in their chat with you and won't know who else you sent it as well. They even won't know that you sent it to others at all.
    However this feature is only available on Android currently AFAIK.
