  1. What current existing technology fulfills the solution? WhatsApp.
  2. Name of your technology. XMPP
  3. How is it better than current technology? It is not centralized on a single server. It’s client apps are free software and not proprietary. It uses OMEMO encryption which is strong and private keys stay on client. Whether keys stay on client cannot be verified in WhatsApp even though it claims end to end encryption.
  4. Are there any conflict of interests? No. (9th Jan 2022)

P.S. Can people please fill sheet of PixelFed. This community would not be useful without action and making upvotes alone. It would flourish if we stay together and interact on given platforms encouraging other people.
