The creator of Pixelfed announced an upcoming encrypted messenger for the fediverse that will work across the fediverse - eviltoast

It will be open source, end to end encrypted using Signal’s double ratchet encryption protocol, and he plans to make it easy for fediverse platforms to integrate it. The beta will release later this month.

He’s also the creator of https://fedidb.org btw

    All the data they have on any specific user is the account creation date, and the last online timestamp. They’ve already done loops around this topic in the DOJ.

    And I thought it should be obvious that an online service doesn’t work if you’re offline

      Yeah, but messengers, such as WhatsApp for instance, will send you missed messages once you’re back online. That’s what I was referring to.
