@jckimble Yesyes but no one I know wants to use it. If there'd be a platform which integrates everything then you can create an open, secure eco system. Then it'll be easier for people to use.

@linuxxx yeah its sad. it's the same way for me. I have gnupg and uTox but nobody I talk to uses either one.

@honeyBadgerJeff I know it yeah, not open source though too badly. Yup, agree on the whatsapp thingy, solely use Signal and sometimes telegram.

@linuxxx btw, my mom is not up to date with any tech whatsoever. But she uses fax, (and made me buy one for her) so that she can send sensitive info from work to home hahaha

@Xaoi Using that as we speak and been using that for about 1,5 years now (dropped whatsapp for it). Love it but miss video calls the most. Luckily I got my friends and family as far to use it as well!

My dream project. Although we have tools like facebook, twitter, whatsapp, you name it, and although whatsapp is 'officially' (between quotes because I won't believe that until proven by source code or something) end-to-end encrypted, I would like to create an open source platform which basically everyone can use which features all usual tools like email, calendar, voice/video calls etc while being entirely decentralized/end-to-end encrypted.
I'd like to create this because of my own daily struggle of refusing to use closed/non-encrypted tools for communication while a lot of people don't care about privacy and don't want to use tools like Signal, Tox and so on.
It's me not about making money, it's about providing a safe place where people can do their things without the possibility of being spied on without reason.
