sup. is an open source encrypted fediverse instant messenger, similar to whatsapp, made by pixelfed.

The beta will be launching later this month, and btw most fediverse accounts will work, not just Pixelfed 😉

@dansup @Yuvalne Any the reason you're not going with MLS from the IETF? It seems like the whole industry is going that way because of the Digital Markets Act.

@dansup @Yuvalne Does "the Signal protocol" mean that, like Signal, I have to give someone my phone number? I assume not, but…

@fishidwardrobe I don't think there's any requirement for phone numbers in the #Signal Protocol.

They all sound similar but the Signal Protocol (the technical spec; also used by WhatsApp), The Signal Foundation (the non-profit entity behind Signal), and Signal (the messaging service) are all different things.

@dansup @Yuvalne

@fishidwardrobe@mastodon.me.uk @dansup@mastodon.social @Yuvalne@433.world no, my guess is that it'll use the encryption standards provided by libsignal without using signal's services.

@fishidwardrobe @dansup @Yuvalne No, it's used in Skype as well where you're not forced to link it.

Please consider MLS, end-to-end encryption protocol standardized by IETF: https://blog.phnx.im/rfc-9420-mls/

Matrix and some other messengers are going to adopt it, so there's a possibility that we can interoperate with them in the future.

Phoenix R&DRFC 9420 aka Messaging Layer Security (MLS) - An OverviewMessaging Layer Security has been published. MLS is the first standardized, fully specified, freely accessible end-to-end encryption protocol.
