Is this some kind of actually new IM, or yet another fork of XMPP/Conversations?
- I made this from scratch lol
  
  How does it work under the hood? I mean how do you hook up and teconnect with people in a decentralised manner?
  
  Neato. Always cool to see a new approach. Synapse/Matrix is excellent, but, running a federated Matrix server is an exercise in frustration. So many version forks, so many hard crashes. :(

does it work across LAN or p2p Bluetooth without WAN like Briar, Cwtch, etc?

Only looked at the Cargo.toml files.
(pet peeve) Considering there is (presumably) no compatibility concerns, why not use an efficient binary format instead of JSON?
Not checking in Cargo.lock files, and using = dependency versions for Phoenix_Desktop, is a bit odd!

can you create a flatpak, appimage, or something rather than the binary?

Will nostr consider decentralised end to end encrypted ?

Why?
- Why not?
  
  Because we already have hundreds of them?
