I don’t understand why I privacy respecting app would use discord for their community. I subscribed to their mailing list and look forward to any updates.
I also think that using the phone number to find friends, as done by signal, is really important for mainstream adoption.
A bit ironic innit
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
Here’s the paper they linked to from the README: https://berty.tech/docs/protocol/
How does it work? Is this similar to Briar?
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.
