  • rephrase section1 with short "catchy" lines
  • focus on "what is it" in the "try it out" section that follows
  • uses lower casing and single sentences (no dots) -- i think the overall impression is simpler without capitaliisation and dots if they can be avoided ... it's also an ancient style in certain a-circles

looks good so far.

i would leave the paragraph that sums up the technical part in a line, however, this is no blocker.

for me, these two lines would have helped a lot for general understanding what the remaining things are about.

why remove it?

I think it's useful too, but maybe the intention is to encourage reading the documentation without getting into details.

in the next section the "self-contained html5 app" is mentioned so it's not all lost. Thing is that the "Try it out" section already provides enough details to understand it. I also added some emoticons. Feel free to re-style.

'install and configure' is accurate but sounds laborious, perhaps could be less technical overall…

the problem is that "install and configure" is quite a barrier however you phrase it. It will block out people who might otherwise be interested to try things out. I am wondering if we can publish a QR code for obtaining a "tmp.testrun.org" account where you can only message people on the "tmp" island for now. All outbound traffic could be blocked.

just had longer chat with Aaron and we trimmed the slogans a bit further. i also incorporated bjoern's feedback and re-instated the privacy policy and imprint (also they are a bit weird as they only talk about delta chat).
