Hm, well, i dint know that that was possible. It's cool to see Mozilla and others pioneering such a cool technology. Hopefully it will make messaging a lot more pleasant and trustworthy.

Me either. And what’s really interesting to me is:

And long gone are the days when everyone had to be on the same app to benefit from these kinds of advanced security protocols.

Maybe this is the key to Mastodon and truly private direct messaging. Not to mention cross platform chatting

Agreed. The reason why we are aboe to have the Internet today is because we agree upon a set of standards which make it easier to share and transmit data. I wonder what other standards are in the works.
