Wouldn鈥檛 it be cool if you could send encrypted DM鈥檚 on the Fediverse BEFORE you could do it in Bluesky? #JustBetweenUs
@ Ben Pate 馃馃徎 Technically speaking, Hubzilla has had encryption for years already, probably for longer than Mastodon has even been around. It comes on top of Hubzilla's permissions system which already makes Hubzilla inherently more private and secure than Mastodon.
Downside: Hubzilla's encryption only works within Hubzilla where it is an official, optional add-on. I'm not even sure if it works beyond the Zot6 protocol. But still, one can't say that the Fediverse doesn't have any encryption anywhere.
