I thought blockchain doesn't solve trust issues, you still need to trust the developers of the blockchain.

You have to trust any code you didn't write yourself, even if it's just the compiler and OS.

It’s certainly better than having all identities sitting on one company’s server. In that case, they can delete whoever they want and they also know your IP (look at keybase for example).

Check out the Jami developer blog.
