https://tryquiet.org@rolle looks interesting. If it can add voice/video/desktop sharing with dedicated desktop clients then it could be a winner. With discord now pushing for profit it could be a decent replacement once this has had time to cook.

https://tryquiet.org@rolle@mementomori.social This looks interesting, but I have to wonder how well it scales. The weakness of a direct client-to-client network is that N×N grows rapidly as N increases.

https://tryquiet.org@rolle Wait, what's wrong with Element? Wasn't it literally created for the same reason?

https://tryquiet.orgThe website definitely looks more slick than https://tox.chat/ but I have trouble seeing what the advantage over that existing decentralised system is. #tox

@joshisanonymous
Element is federated like Mastodon, not fully decentralised. If that's important depends on your threat model

@rolle@Joris @joshisanonymous I use Matrix. It seems Quiet takes a different approach since it's serverless and peer-to-peer. Matrix can be a hassle to set up. I have my own server, and it's definitely a love-hate relationship.

@ruisan I actually know very little about this app. I just starred it on GitHub and wanted to share it.
