Id like to introduce you to a decentralized chat app that works purely in the browser. Breaking away from traditional solutions that require registration and installation.
A decentralized infrastructure has many unique challenges and this is a unique approach. Ive taken previsous feedback and made updates. Its important to note, it is still a work-in-progress and provided for testing/review/feedback purposes. it would be great if you can tell me what you think.
Some of the features of the app include:
- Free
- Decentralised
- No cookies
- P2P encrypted
- No registration
- No installing
- Group messaging
- Text messaging
- Multimedia messaging
- Offline messaging (LAN/hotspot)
- File transfer
- Video calls
- Data-ownership
- Selfhosted (optional)
- Screensharing (on desktop browsers)
- OS notifications (where supported)
With no registration or installation required, its easy to get started.
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.
