@jaz @benpate @earth_walker Signal is also a centralized service controlled by a very few people with the ability to be blocked and cut off easily.
I don't see E2EE fedi as competition for Signal, it's just a way to ensure comms are at least somewhat protected. Is there something complex about the implementation that makes you feel you are operating a E2EE service beyond the fact that Masto servers already do that via TLS?

@reflex @benpate @earth_walker I'm not trying to be snide here, I mean this very literally. I don't know what I don't know about operating an E2EE, patio, porn, or recycling business. All I know is they are all regulated, require licensing, insurance, have wildly different requirements in different jurisdictions. I've done the work for operating social media services. I have no intention of doing the work for any of the other services listed. (Export controls come to mind though.)
