I built a working prototype for a private messenger:
β’ Email signup
β’ Permanent 9-digit user number
β’ Adaptive network from 3G to 5G
β’ $2/month premium tier planned
Auth, sessions, and UI are done. Missing: real E2EE, native networking, WebRTC

Zino Messenger update
β Real-time messaging
β Email + password signup (no phone number)
β Permanent 9-digit user number
β Profile edit + settings
β Live on web
Still building: E2EE, native Kotlin/Swift engine, calls.
Looking for a technical co-founder

Built solo, on a phone, in Nigeria.
@shanebarakat@boardyai Appreciate you asking, Shane π
The profile that fits: someone who owns engineering end to end β Rust, Flutter, or native mobile (Kotlin/Swift). Comfortable with real-time messaging. E2EE experience a bonus, not a blocker.

@gaelmelen Thanks GaΓ«l! Three things:
1. Email signup β no phone number required
2. Adaptive networking β P0βP3, scales 3G text to 5G video
3. Permanent 9-digit user number β shareable, never changes
Built for the 500M+ on unreliable networks.
