hear me out: bitchat file / audio / video transfers between two devices directly via tor, no file storage service in between.

so many cool things you could do with tor.

WiFi direct? It seems too heavy for Bluetooth.

wifi direct is not interoperable 😢

Yeah I forgot I don't care about iOS shit.

Loool

Have y’all looked into Localsend protocol?

Wi-Fi direct would be very nice

Wow

Wow. Está evoluindo rápido

Top. 🚀

It would be sweet if you could somehow have a user download bitch app from someone else's phone without being connected to the internet.

Oh that's amazing idea especially for protest where internet has been cut

awesome

Just keep making my life cooler and cooler

I don't receive notifications when my app is closed but on background and my wife send messages via bluetooth, is this intentional?

you should. iOS or android?

Both Android, Im testing with Samsungs A05, A32, Note 10 Lite, S20FE and Tab S9 Ultra.

In today attempt I receive a notification saying that there are 2 people around, but not that they are sending messages

I use the GitHub version

I will make more tests

Thanks for building! 🚁👍🏻

"Directly via Tor" - isn't that an oxymoron

And also way too slow for file transfers

no. Tor does several megabytes per second.

irrelevant detail. same with the entire internet, nothing is truly direct.

Yep thought about that too

Is there any way to do multicast audio?

Tor? 🤮 This is what pears.com is for

Not even the same category.

Are you not talking about file transfer? Im talking about file transfer

Its literally what you described, except actually has a chance of working because it doesnt use Tor lol

Tor is way more powerful than just a NAT traversal protocol of which there are dozens out there.

But thats literally what youre proposing to use it for in this product. Maybe youre unfamiliar with Tor, but it is NOT designed or optimized for file sharing. Its a whole thing lol

Slapping Tor on something isnt a novel solution, and it would suck for all the reasons everybody knows it would: Tor is incredibly slow

Calle is a real cypher punkt. we owe her a big time and all the dev that contribute to open source . giving back power to people .

Him, not her :)

Him , not her 😁

Could u also do it over ble mesh??

100–300 kbps from BLE Mesh, that’s in the same ballpark as ISDN’s 128 kbps, but BLE Mesh is not designed for the same kind of steady data transfer.

#wormhole

It is way to slow
