      Simplex have different design and does not cover the same use case. For me I just want a middle ground between the two.

        simplex requires zero identifiable information.

        you have to add users to the trust to get access to the channel/dm.

        the relay is self-hosted, meaning you have control over where your messages are handled. this means you could run it entirely on an intranet or pipe it through a lora-wan.

        personally I run a local instance within my LAN, and another instance in the cloud. both terminate with the same DNS. this means I can have quick very secure chats with family while at home that never leaves my network and when we’re out messages are still going through my infrastructure.
