Private chats for the family ๐Ÿฅณ #ArcaneChat is a #private and secure #messenger focused on #privacy and friendly user experience. No phone numbers or any personal data required!

nope, I am using open source non-custodial wallet Unstoppable, as long as that doesn't support lightning I am not using it, also I use crypto to buy food etc. and the site I use doesn't support lightning so there is not much motivation for me to hold it, thanks for looking into the page tho

๐ŸŽ‰ arcanechat.me server upgraded! ๐ŸŽ‰

some of you might have noticed arcanechat.me was down for a few minutes, that was because I was migrating to the new more powerful server as announced some days ago!

besides having a faster more powerful server, now every user have 2GB of temporary storage! useful if you receive a lot of media!

๐ŸŽ this is my Christmas gift for the #ArcaneChat users, if you feel like showing back your love, you can support my work here:

"Tool allows stealthy tracking of #Signal and #WhatsApp users through delivery receipts"

https://cyberinsider.com/tool-allows-stealthy-tracking-of-signal-and-whatsapp-users-through-delivery-receipts

#ArcaneChat don't have delivery receipts, only read receipts, the only automatic responses the app does in your behalf is to handle invite links, for that to be abused you first have to share your invite link with a malicious contact, you can get in contact with random/public entity via their invite link and be safe, as long as it is not you the one sharing your invite link!

In Signal / WhatsApp as soon as you contact someone or they guess your number you are vulnerable

To start with in ArcaneChat (and other #chatmail clients like DeltaChat) you don't need a phone number (or any private data at all!) to register, attackers can't simply guess your ID and do an exploit like the one mentioned in that article, keep your family safe! move everyone to ArcaneChat/DeltaChat ๐Ÿ’œ

#ArcaneChat 2.33.0 aleady available in #ZapStore! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

this is so cool! I ported to #webxdc TIC-80 #fantasy #computer for making, playing and sharing tiny #games

you can import/export files with add/get commands!

with this you can create #retro games in #lua, #fennel, #python, #ruby, #javascript etc and play/share them with friends as in-chat apps in #DeltaChat / #ArcaneChat

I would like to expose the webxdc API to TIC-80 games so they can do networking/multiplayer and send in-chat messages

#fantasyconsole #console #retrogaming #tic80 #pico8

I created an small #webxdc app for #DeltaChat / #ArcaneChat as a joke to quickly send a "Yo!" or "Bro!" notification to your chat pals!

this was inspired by an episode of #SilliconValley https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_Valley_(TV_series)

and actually there was a real app with this feature in #AppleStore that received 1M dollars in investment!

๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yo_(app)

unlike that app that got hacked and user data exposed, this app can't be hacked and leak data since it works encrypted between peers without any 3rd party service

In the next #ArcaneChat version you will be able to add/remove several addresses/servers/relays in a single profile, what does this mean??? ๐Ÿ‘‡

1. You will be able to receive messages from different addresses in a single profile ๐Ÿ“ฌ

2. If one of the servers goes down, you will keep receiving/sending messages from the other addresses increasing resilience ๐Ÿ’ช

3. You can seamlessly migrate from one relay/address to another without any disturbance for your contacts, they keep chatting with you in the same chat as usual ๐Ÿค

4. ArcaneChat will work pretty similar to #Nostr where every server is a dumb relay just passing around encrypted blobs and you can add/replace them, peak resilience and censorship resistance!

don't give up on #privacy, don't give up on your human rights

We cannot base our human rights on the governmentโ€™s mere promise to uphold them. The UK government must listen to the public and civil society organizations in the country and say no to digital ID.

and delta chat is encrypted email ๐Ÿ™„

"if only there was a #chat app that had end-to-end #encryption, without phone numbers or any private data required for registration, #decentralized, easy to use, with good multi-profile and multi-device support and available in all platforms"

it is not that I have something to hide ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ I simply have nothing I want YOU to see...

with #ArcaneChat no one can scam you or impersonate your friends/family, since to get in contact you have to share your contact invite link or show them your QR, a scammer simply can't write to your grandmother or #kids

๐Ÿ”œ SPOILERS

in the next version of #ArcaneChat, you will be able to open geo-URLs (geo: links that open map) and other links inside in-chat mini-apps! ๐ŸŽ‰

additionally, geo: and gemini: links will be also now clickable when shared in normal chat messages bubbles in ArcaneChat!

๐Ÿšฎ you will also be able to retract invitation links of the new experimental channels feature
