@cwtch

Hello,

Would you say that a goal of the project would be to eventually have something resembling the features of discord for a small community (say, topic channels and some nice text features, if not voice/video chat)?

The lack of (safe) encryption in FOSS slack/discord alteratives is a concern. Most of the FOSS communication projects with decent encryption seem very unsuitable for large communities. But with the ability to make multiple separate identities, cwtch seems to have unique potential for community usecases. I know SimpleX seems to be going down this route, but... lots of weird things happening over there.

Or is this something best pursued elsewhere? I guess XMPP is the only thing I can think of right now. I'm not very clued up about the landscape here.

@R3yScale @cwtch I would love if cwtch could replace simplex, fascist project maintainer and cwtch is more decentralised and censorship resistant

All it would take I think for me to say the switch is worth it would be quantum resistant encryption and new cryptographic identities in every chat (perhaps a different tor address for every new chat)

I also need to compare the deniability features - simplex has a nice hidden profile feature
