Is this some kind of actually new IM, or yet another fork of XMPP/Conversations?
I made this from scratch lol
How does it work under the hood? I mean how do you hook up and teconnect with people in a decentralised manner?
It works similar to Matrix which is federated
Any pointers on how that works :-D ?
Homeserver is essentially a distributed chat relay so clients post messages to rooms and the server relays those messages to its peers
And the server is where?
Official homeserver (https://phoenixim.site/) is hosted on a VPS and all homeservers are interconnected via federation
I see it has Tor as a dependency. Does it make use of onion routing? in which way?
Official homeserver supports federation over onion services and dockerfile hosts homeserver as onion service that’s why i added Tor as a dependency
can you create a flatpak, appimage, or something rather than the binary?
Only looked at the
Cargo.tomlfiles.- (pet peeve) Considering there is (presumably) no compatibility concerns, why not use an efficient binary format instead of JSON?
- Not checking in
Cargo.lockfiles, and using=dependency versions forPhoenix_Desktop, is a bit odd!
