How is it "objectively worse"?

[samizdette]

I guess because it is harder to back up and recover and harder to sync between devices. Signal has made a lot of progress on those though.

Main thing that comes to mind is things like this:

- If you lose you phone you lose your messages

- If you forget your password you lose your messages

- If you switch phone you often lose messages

- If you get added to a group you can't see the previous messages

This shouldn't be the case right? As password isn't related to the key messages are encrypted with.

It should be, otherwise where is that key coming from?
