I know of two difficult edge cases for p2p designs.
Can two people exchange messages if they are not online at the same time?
Can one person receive the same message on more than one device?

@alienghic@timeloop.cafe yes, and yes. that's what the smtp/email relay network is used for: 1. Peers don't need to be online at the same time at all. And multiple devices are consistently synchronized. 2. Each device is equal to other devices. If your first device dies, the second device will be just fine, and you can setup a another third from it.
