I was super bored, so I made a free, fully encrypted, and anonymous chat app. I've been coding with Python for many years, and recently had some extra free time, so I decided to create something fun. I’m not a fan of frontend design, so please excuse the simple bootstrap look.

This project came from being bored and a bit anxious. 😂

Please don't present something like this as legitimate. I understand it's a fun project, but it's risky, and people shouldn't use it. So, don't promote it that way.
 
So we're just supposed to "believe" you on this?

Not trying to put you on the spot or anything, but from a real-world perspective, no one who really cares about privacy would say, "Oh yeah, that’s great."


Without a clear white paper explaining the security details and other factors, it doesn’t sound very convincing.

Also, saying "Everything is just about trust" is totally off when it comes to cryptography. Public key encryption exists for a reason.
 
How do I market my questionable stuff?

Just add a story, and it’ll do the trick.

Well, definitely not on BHW.

Exactly! Trust doesn’t matter when you can clearly show how you're protecting your users. And even then, having an open-source project or a respected third-party audit makes that trust stronger.

Yep. The "funny" part is that this isn’t E2E encrypted (if it was, he wouldn’t be able to "see everything") and it’s not open-source either.

I made this to be anonymous and encrypted (data in the database). Of course, it's not 100% safe, and I'm not promoting it, I just wanted to share what I created during my free time. When I say it's not 100% safe, I mean that I can decrypt all the data and read it, but honestly, I can't tell who it's from. The app doesn't collect any personal info like your IP address, nor does it log the IP you use, so it's anonymous that way.

The road to trouble is built with good ideas :)

Instead of offering it as a complete security tool, share the source code on GitHub.

It's not even close to being safe at all.
