Hey everyone.
I make Peersuite, an opensource free communication platform.
It's private by default, there's no sign-in or email collection.
It's peer-to-peer, there's no server, after discovery you are connected directly to your friends my AES-GCN encrypted WebRTC channels. It forms a mesh and identifies superpeers. Because there is no server, in order to save your data between sessions, you can download your workspace into a password encrypted file. Happy to answer any questions.
FEATURES: chat with images, PMs, channels, and file send group audio/video calling screensharing kanban board whiteboard for diagrams/flowchartswith PNG export collaborative document editing with formatted PDF export
The best way for self hosting is docker, its on dockerhub as openconstruct/peersuite. You can also download desktop versions from the github or use on the web at https://peersuite.space/
That's a really good idea! Now in the roadmap.
I feel like saving the password in the export is a bad idea if security is your thing
The export is password encrypted already. I'll see if there's a good way to do it.
Fair enough, it lowers the risk. Are you doing key stretching? Ie. X rounds of pbkdf or whatever it's called?
@martinb @jerrimu I wrote the initial comment with the idea of saving just the username, but then figured "why not?" for the password. If the password is saved in browser memory (and based how I *think* the app functions, it would have to be), then it wouldn't be much different than saving a password in firefox's password manager (for example). Assuming reasonable crypto usage by the app, of course.
