    Personally, it sounds easier for me to get my nephew on matrix then to fund the cuban network infrastructure :p. Though, it there is an easy/cheap way to help build up infrastructure in poor countries, I am willing to help.

      I think you meant “than” instead of “then”.

      Anyways, the problem is that most Cubans life with an “email data package” of 50 MB per month at an USA dollar.

      They can use it too for some websites in the national network too.

      The other data plan for general connection is about 600 or 300 MB at 5-7 USA dollars.

      A lot of Cubans life with a salary over 20-30 USA dollars per month.

      EMail is a main communication channel there and Delta Chat has got quite famous because of this.

      IRC, as suggested before by Oue, it is an alternative for people with technical knowledge because it takes fewer resources.
