Well, nostr is looking to implement signal protocol. You tell me.

🤷‍♂️

To me they are both encrypted messages hosted on a server somewhere.

Though, isn’t that everything. 😅

I like the idea of encrypted nostr events on a private relay. if the relay is shut down , we can pack and move to a new one.

I don’t know what telegram used for encryption but signal uses double ratchet which sounds legit

Except that signal is very likely going to be compromised. And it's still not easy enough to sign up without using a phone.

No we’re implementing MLS which is a more scalable group protocol that works better in a distributed network.

Oh ok. How does it compare to double ratchet?

This stuff is over my head.
