What's the benefit of this? I thought content on the fediverse was public by nature.

Idk. Its fediverse, let's make everything OpenSource and decentralized.

✅ reddit ✅ twitter ✅ facebook ✅ Instagram ❌ eBay ❌ amazon ❌ WhatsApp

I don't understand how most of this works I suppose, but I remember reading one of the problems with DMs in Mastodon and Lemmy is that they aren't actually private due to the way federation works, so I wonder how encryption is going to work in Sup.

We have Matrix for WhatsApp. It's quite mature.
