The titles named the page in the site's own words ("How this compares",
"Messages"), which no one types into a search box. Each now carries the
phrase people do search for, taken from DuckDuckGo's autocomplete on
2026-10-03, and each says only what its page already says:

  • /comparison: "Flamenet Messenger vs Signal, Telegram and Apple Messages"
    (searches: signal alternative, telegram alternative). The table's columns
    are those three.
  • /messages: "Encrypted messages, no phone number" (messaging without phone
    number, secure messaging app no phone number).
  • /files: "Encrypted file sharing" (encrypted file sharing free, secure file
    sharing app).
  • /self-hosting: "Self-hosted messenger: run your own relay" (self hosted
    messenger).
  • /source: "Open source messenger, MIT licence" (open source messenger). The
    page names the MIT licence.

/get keeps its title: the iPhone build is still a TestFlight beta, so it
does not say "Android and iPhone" yet. Descriptions are unchanged. The
Spanish pages are a separate pass.
