  • it certainly gives more control over your own data, but (if you know what youre doing) from a cybersec perspective, it can help to reduce the "attack surface". the current direction is to allow users the flexibility from a version provided from me hosted on aws s3 or host it yourself from open source code. additionally, you can host your own peerjs-server as used for brokering connections... by default it connects to the public instance of peerjs-server (so its easier for users to get startedt).

    im aiming for flexibility in "getting started" from ready-to-go to selfhosting. it all depends on if a user knows what theyre doing.

  • For testing and demo purposes only. NOT to replace any other app you use.

    Session, Signal, Simplex and countless more apps are better for privacy and security. I can only hope to get to that level on my project.

    Selhosting and a vpn are optional depending on your use case; the app works with niether to help users try it out and get started. Like all secure messaging apps, its better to selfhost given the option.

    I've put effort into how the app is working, but ultimately i dont think its appropiate for me to suggest this code is ready for your sensitive data when it hasnt been reviewed or audited.

  • hey. im working on something similar with more features and more robust cryptography.

    its still a work-in-progress, but its available for testing if youd like to try it out.

  • if "trust" in the static files from a url is a concern, (which is very reasonable), you can easily host your own instance.

    i think it fits squarely as a "P2P app". over a hotspot, you can practically send messages offline. im not sure what other qualifiers are needed.

    i dont think its ready to be compared to other tools yet. but i would be aiming to make it comparable to something like signal... but it'll take a while to get there.
