    I don’t understand why a privacy respecting app would use discord for their community. I subscribed to their mailing list and look forward to any updates.

    This is exceptional. This truly looks like the perfect decentralised chat service.

    I really hope this takes off, but knowing most people, it will likely remain niche for a long while till something like Signal falls (which I don’t wish for to happen btw).

    Is there a whitepaper or anything else that explains the details of the privacy measures? I skimmed through the README, but I’d like more detail.

    Thank you for bringing this to the open. I hope that as time goes on, this gets more attention and gets adopted by the community (I can’t force my family to use anything other than corporate spyware, and I personally have no need for chat apps, but I hope someone does).

    Thanks

    Looks interesting, is the android app available any other way than the playstore? On the github page I can only see files for windows and linux, maybe I am missing something obvious here.

    I just tried it as I was intrigued, but it didn’t go so well.
    The first thing it did was complain about not being able to connect to its notifications server, so I couldn’t enable notifications… even looked into the app permissions and there was nothing preventing it from pushing notifications.
    Then I wanted to see which OSS was used and that link didn’t work. (possible license violation?)
    After that I wanted to try the mode where you can communicate locally through BLE and all that. Enabling that feature causes the app to just crash when opening it.
