    There’s already something like this and it’s called SimpleX. Messages are sent through relays and a very familiar form of ratcheting encryption is used.

    It’s still in its infancy, but anyone can run and use their own relay.

      Simplex is a great example of why trying to force apps to work with each over is bad for a number of reasons.

      Simplex chat would be massively compromised as a messager if it was required to work with Telegram. Imagine the amount of spam you would get if nothing else.
