JAMI Chat

[VonDaab]

So with Discord becoming just a corporate data-harvesting platform, I've looked at alternatives and stumbled upon this Canadian based Linux group's project.

They're claiming encrypted P2P messaging. All data stays on local systems, no middle man. For registering you dont give them any info, not even email. Just type in a username you want, and done, you've got Jami.

Very wide platform support too.

Having used it for a couple days now, it seems quite competent, with only bugs on the Winslop 11, unsurprisingly. Has kinda old MSN Messenger/Skype vibes to it, with some clearly modern bits taken from Discord in design.

Thoughts?
