When you take the time to thoroughly read the documentation of this protocol, you will have a good overview of the manner in which Delta Chat thwarts adversaries from intercepting the data transfer between multiple parties

Lot of time has been taken and a lot of coding has been done to achieve this level of Ease, for the end user while it is still quite Secure on the backend

Can you use it in All situations Secure Communication is required? Of course not.

Will it have bugs? naturally it exists of much more than just three lines of code, so don't be silly

Is it a nice Achievement? IMHO it Is a very Good Achievement.

Now go read study and learn and if necessary even add some code fork it if you want to

In the Everlasting search for clients and servers Federated, detached from corporate underlords, connected to the masses I learned about the following client server duo

Client: Delta Chat
Servers: Chat Mail servers

One thing that jumps immediately into attention, is the fact that when you download the client, select a server, you get a QR code

When you've configured your client, you will immediately notice that you do not need to enter a password for your client. The system is passwordless by default.

You do not need to enter a multi-factor authentication code it doesn't need it.

What you need to do is be careful with, is who you share your link with. Go and play with it, see if it something for you

I’m working towards something for #secure / #private / #simple #P2P #filetransfer. It isnt as “simple” as it could be, im still working on it, but ive got it down to:

Zero-installation as a #PWA

Zero-registration by using local-only storage

#P2P-authentication using #WebCryptoAPI

Fast #datatransfer using #WebRTC

It’s far from finished, but i think ive got it “usable” enough to ask for feedback on it.

When comparing this project to things like #wormhole, #onionshare, #localsend, #syncthing, #croc, #sphynctershare and countless others. the key difference in my approach is that its a #webapp thats ready to go without any "real" setup process. you just need a browser.

I’m aware there are things like #SFTP and several other established protocols and tools. I started doing this because I was learning about #WebRTC and it seems suprisingly capable. This isnt ready to replace any existing apps or services.

(Note: I know you guys are typically interested in #opensource code. this project is a spin-off from a bigger project: github.com/positive-intentions)

Let me know what you think about the app, features and experience you would expect from a tool like this.

SUPER IMPORTANT NOTES TO PREVENT MISLEADING:

These projects are not ready to replace any existing apps or services.

These projects are not peer-reviewed or security audited.

The chat-app is #opensource for transparency (as linked above)... but the file-app is not open souce at all (especially spicy when not reviewed or audited.).

All projects behind positive-intentions are provided for testing and demo purposes only.

I hate my #bank...

"As a #security measure" when you #login, instead of typing it the whole #password, you have to type in 8 #random characters from it, like 1st, 4th, 10th etc.

What does this #secure against? Your user being able to log in? Every time I have to open a #notepad and type out my password, count the characters, and type them in one by one, instead of JUST USING A PASSWORD #MANAGER.

If an #attacker knows your password... WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES THIS MAKE?!
