Show HN: Messaging and file sharing that stores nothing on servers

1 points by diode_sovereign 2 hours ago

We built Diode Collab because even "secure" messaging apps still route everything through someone else's servers. The problem with "secure" apps Most messaging and file sharing apps pass your data through centralized corporate servers. Even encrypted apps like Signal and WhatsApp:

Route traffic through their servers (central point of failure) Keep metadata about who you talk to and when Tie your identity to phone numbers or personal identifiers

How Diode works Diode connects devices directly in a secure perimeter. No servers in the middle.

Peer-to-peer: Data moves directly between your devices End-to-end encrypted: Unlike other apps that break encryption at the server, Diode keeps everything encrypted end-to-end. Not even Diode has access to your data. Zero leakage: No central point that can be logged, breached, or subpoenaed

Solving the P2P availability problem Traditional P2P requires both devices online simultaneously. We solved this with Zone canisters on the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) - a decentralized relay that ensures 24/7 availability without becoming a server that can be compromised. Your data stays encrypted and under your control. Anonymous by design Diode only requires a username - no phone number, email, or personal details. Access is managed through decentralized credentials that you control. Who this is for Teams and families who need their messages, photos, and documents to never touch corporate infrastructure. https://diode.io/products/collab-family/ Happy to answer questions about Diode and digital sovereignty.
