I'm an anonymous developer from Ukraine. I created PrivNet — a minimalist and encrypted chat protocol, inspired by the spirit of classic IRC but adapted to modern realities.

Key features: - End-to-end encryption using Fernet (AES-128 + HMAC) - Minimal dependencies (just Python + cryptography) - Works in mesh networks — even without internet or over dial-up - Fully autonomous — keys are generated locally, no central server - Designed for autonomous communities, activists, preppers, and role-players

The server starts in just a couple of commands. Messages are encrypted and readable only by those with the key. This isn't just a project — it’s an idea I believe in.

Looking for: - Developers (especially Android / cross-platform client devs) - UI/UX designers - Testers - Anyone who believes in private, free, decentralized communication

Happy to hear your feedback, ideas, or contributions. Open to criticism — and will gladly improve the project with thoughtful suggestions.

Let’s build a free and resilient communication protocol for the real world — together.

Thanks for reading!
