Sigh. There are so many people doing this. I couldn't access the main article but read the Kickstarter page. From what I understand this is a plea for funding for (basic) components that are already built by other teams, but with an extra layer of encryption and a copy-cat UI.

Why not just focus on encrypting content on an existing decentralized network project like pump.io or GNU social? Or any other open network? Build on some momentum that is already there rather than debug message transport for life?




It's cliché, but competition stimulates demand.
