It's a trade off per see. I don't need my cryptocat chatting ability on all of my communication or on all of my devices. I figured that I'm okay using it for work projects where I work for some other entity (ie oil and gas firms, retail firms, etc). The bonus is the lower processor / laptop requirements and the ability to be mobile (ie work from a Mexican beach).
Now for my sex chats with the My Little Pony Porn group...that's all cryptocat...SHIT!
