Databag is a lightweight, decentralized messaging platform designed for efficiency and privacy. It enables direct communication between users and server nodes with a focus on end-to-end encryption and federation.

 

Keyfeatures

  • Decentralized communication (direct app-to-server node connection)
  • Federated network (users on different nodes can communicate)
  • Public-Private key based identity (not tied to blockchain or domains)
  • End-to-End encryption (even admins can't see sealed topics)
  • Audio and Video Calls (supports NAT traversal with a relay server)
  • Topic-based threads (messages are organized by topics)
  • Unlimited participants in threads
  • Low latency with websockets for real-time communication
  • Mobile alerts for messages, contacts, and calls
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (supports TOTP apps)
  • Runs on minimal hardware (e.g., Raspberry Pi Zero)
