@session_app Pasting my (of course locally-generated) AI summary for those interested.

Glad to see you guys are able to keep going!

[Session @session_app]

Thanks to you, the project will live on.

Session now has a clear path forward.

While the network and technology is open source and decentralized, so can survive without the foundation, the foundation serves real value in its regulatory capacity, funding development, and running some infrastructure. Consider reading the appeal https://t.co/g4IliFZNyF

[Aerilym @Aerilym]

I've had the pleasure of working on @session_app for the past 2 years, building something truly incredible. I've admired every contributors drive an passion since the very start and I'll continue to volunteer my time where I can to support the only truly private messenger💚

[Session @session_app]

Your donations have helped, and the Session Technology Foundation (STF) has received enough funding to support critical operations for 90 days.

This means that Session will remain available on the app stores and essential services (such as the file server and push notification server) will stay online until July 8.

For now, further development has been paused, so new features will not be released and emerging or existing bugs may not be immediately fixed. Most likely, there will be no new releases during this period.

Volunteers will continue to keep Session alive for as long as is feasible. However, without proper funding to put towards development, over time Session will fall behind alternatives on usability and (eventually) security.

We are extremely grateful to all the members of the community who have helped Session over the years by running nodes, onboarding their friends, and contributing to the foundation. Thank you to all who have worked with us to defend privacy for the last 8 years.

Currently, it is estimated that USD$1 million is needed to complete the launch and support Protocol v2 (PFS, post-quantum, secure device management) and Pro (ecosystem sustainability). Beyond this, it is hoped the project could stand on its own.

However, without this funding, the final day for Session is July 8. Although we must give this notice now, we will continue doing everything we can to secure more time for Session. If you or someone you know might be able to help, please connect.

Without additional funding, Session's doors will close next month.

Announcing Session Protocol v2.

Re-implementing Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS), adopting Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), and more secure device management.

Send messages, not metadata.

For decentralized communication to succeed, we need to remain connected and collaborative. Thank you for your support, @vitalikbuterin

[vitalik.eth @VitalikButerin]

Encrypted messaging, like @signalapp, is critical for preserving our digital privacy. Two important next steps for the space are (i) permissionless account creation and (ii) metadata privacy.

@session_app and @SimpleXChat are two messaging apps pushing these directions forward.

For this reason I've donated 128 ETH to each. Addresses available on their websites if you wish to follow on:

https://t.co/FQde3IK0uz

But also, actually download and use them!

Neither of the two are perfect pieces of software, they have a way to go to get to truly optimal user experience and security. Strong metadata privacy requires decentralization, decentralization is hard, users expecting multi-device support makes everything harder. Sybil / DoS resistance, both in the message routing network and on the user side (without forcing phone number dependence) adds further difficulty.

These problems need more eyes on them. I wish all teams working on these important problems best of luck.

EFF is thankful for @session_app, helping us fight to protect end-to-end encryption.

It looks like X is suppressing mentions of the "Online Safety Act."

RT the hell out of this and let's see (we'll let you know the results)

[Richard Medhurst @richimedhurst]

Session and SimpleX don't require phone numbers. That is a massive, massive benefit right from the start. But the way they send messages is also more secure.

[Session @session_app]

Session is handmade tech. No ads, no bloat, no shareholders.

Just private messaging, just for you.
