so my goal with sup. is to make a federated snapchat/whatsapp that is compatible with most platforms.

This was originally going to be a Pixelfed specific Messenger-like app, but then it hit me - this is a perfect opportunity to create a sub project that could be eventually handed over to a trusted org.

@dansup interesting idea. This i suspect is going to be hardest getting traction fast. Social media is perceived as fairly dispensable, but private messaging is bedrock of many people's lives and communication.

Nevertheless, I can see it being a v handy encrypted DM embedded within many other #fediverse projects like #pixelfed #mastodon #peertube even...

@dansup This is intriguing and sounds similar to what Beeper has launched. I’ve been testing their apps and service.

@dansup checkout this abandoned matrix-spec-change for "encrypted stories". I believe it's implemented in #Fluffychat. Not sure why it was abandoned. I'd love if this was in all #matrix clients github.com/matrix-org/matrix-s

@dansup Hey, just a honest question: are you trying to copy Mark Zuckerberg's activities (Mark bought Whatsapp, which is now owned by Meta, but Mark wasn't the one who made Whatsapp - he just bought it!) or are you trying to reverse them (MZ's activities) in a quite different way like what if Mark were the original creator of Whatsapp?

Please describe your point. Thank you in advance.
