Has anyone tried using your delta chat email to make accounts on apps and websites?
No idea if it would work on the standard delta chat mobile app, but it just occurred to me that you might be able to do this. Thoughts?
Chatmail relays don’t accept unencrypted messages, so registration email will be rejected unless it is sent with OpenPGP encryption.

Another example was the public groups bot website that provided a form of chat discovery. It is offline now due to lack of moderation, but it may inspire you also then:
“Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet.”
(proverb)
The Public Groups bot is a nice tool to create public channels, where any Delta Chat user can join - even if you don’t know each other yet.
You can see the existing public groups bots here: Public Groups bot instances list - #2 by cregox
This post shows three things:
How you can join public groups
How you can start a public group
How to run it
So there was this post recently about the new Public Groups Bot , but there were still no instances. OTOH, the SimpleBot by @adbenitez has such a list https://publicgroups.0x90.space/ . It’s open, just login with Delta Chat and join the first group I opened, or open new ones!
If you also run a public groups instance, just post a comment below
A still living example of using your Delta Chat profile to register on a third party community is Pixel Social. It is special in that the service offers a webxdc interface:
