it won’t take long for big companies to come knocking, trying to take over our communities. what’s the plan of action then? do we have to fear suing?

    Is this what element does? You go through the encryption ceremony with someone in a DM, it prob still goes through the server but there is no reason that it could not go to P2P mode once the certificate exchange has completed.

      I will honestly have to look into it more. It seemed interesting, but I have not done a deep dive into how it works.

        ive been on it for about 2 years but only use it a little bit, ill be firing up a server for my instance this week. you can do even stronger encryption and run bots to your hearts content with your own server.

            end-to-end encrypted chat rooms mainly. always been a supporter of federated systems, though was not sure if these were going to catch.

            its essentially fediverse’s version of discord with better privacy options.
