If it runs through a Bluetooth mesh network, wouldn’t that mean you would need a substantial userbase for this to be viable whatsoever unless you are physically near the people you want to message?
Yes. Which isn't a deal-breaker. But definitely a limiter in application. Something like this or Briar would be useful for example on large marches or public protests. Though maybe not this with apparently how insecure and poorly thought out it is. Which I suppose is on brand for Dorsey.

I just had a thought how weird it is, there are people whose names millions know, with preconditions (like what basic capital would be in XIX century) millions can easily have (it’s an application in Swift running on iOS), and a lot of people can judge how well or not well they are doing those things.
Yet it’s even a case for discussion, an important thing, like a new interpretation of some opera in theater.
Maybe it’s on brand, but honestly all this is cuckoldish a bit, as if we were criticizing Jack Dorsey for f-cking our proverbial wife not well enough.
I wish there were “anti Silicon Valley” solutions which are to decentralized transport-agnostic chats and forums what Gemini is for Web. A protocol intended to be understandable for everyone, for which you can make a decent client in two-three days. Except all the notes I make for myself are not worth anything until I make a working application, because that process will help me see what I didn’t when imagining.
God hates people who abuse a security vulnerability disclosure to write a shitty clickbait article, and there’s an extra special place in hell for those who mention a name that’s cool to hate in the title to bring more clicks.

Reticulum works over alternative networks.
Wasn’t this what FireChat was?
Yes, but that was proprietary.
Meshtastic with venture capital.
which is ironic considering Meshtastic is better than this shit tbh. VC just hard forked it and set it down the great path to enshittification
Does that already exist? https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication/#briar
I'm not sure how "decentralized" it is, but it is probably at least somewhat decentralized.

Briar is Android only. Bitchat is an iOS app (may have an Android port in the future though, I think).
fuck anything jack dorsey touches.
