I was looking for something different from Tor and not like I2P. Someone give a look on Lokinet? What’s your thoughts?

Edit : I know that is based on oninon nodes I mean about the privacy feature and what have to offer more

    Do you mean Oxen? Not all that many people use it apparently. I use Session messenger but it’s not super reliable… Although no worse than Matrix I gusss.

    I do like the decentralised onion style of networking with no reallife identifier, for obvious reasons. There’s some crypto mining involved (like legit opt-in for which you need to set up a node, not something secret on the background) which may sound dumb, but imo it gives people the incentive to run nodes and widen the network. Unlike Tor where the incentives are… None, unless you have a specific reason to run a node.

        Same, Session is great because it focus on privacy. You can contact people only by knowing their public ID but you don’t know their private ID which is used by the user to decrypt the messages. As there is no central server, nothing is kept outside of your local Session instance. Pretty decent to me.
