    No link to a repo? I’m not going to watch a video to know what a project does or how it does it. No thanks.

        Thanks.

        So it has a new ID for each tunnel/channel/whatever. As usual, that comes with the downside of discoverability: how do you find all your contacts when installing the app? You always need an out of band transfer of the user ID - be it email, username, or a transient one like this.

        I’m not sure how much better that is than existing chat apps that don’t have discoverability.

            How?

            If the OOB is not encrypted --> hello MITM attack or impersonation (unless of course you’re physically in the same place, which is quite limiting)

            If it’s encrypted, why not just keep using encrypted channel? I have to find an encrypted channel to initiate an encrypted chat?

            I’m not seeing the benefit
