Is this what element does? You go through the encryption ceremony with someone in a DM, it prob still goes through the server but there is no reason that it could not go to P2P mode once the certificate exchange has completed.
I will honestly have to look into it more. It seemed interesting, but I have not done a deep dive into how it works.
ive been on it for about 2 years but only use it a little bit, ill be firing up a server for my instance this week. you can do even stronger encryption and run bots to your hearts content with your own server.
What do you use it for?
end-to-end encrypted chat rooms mainly. always been a supporter of federated systems, though was not sure if these were going to catch.
its essentially fediverse's version of discord with better privacy options.
