Encrypted messengers protect what you say. But who you talk to, and when, can reveal just as much.

AnonChat takes a different approach: no phone number, no email, no account, and no centralized server.

What you get:

> End-to-end encrypted chats, voice calls, and groups of up to 10
> Photo, video, audio message and file sharing
> Disappearing messages, replies and reactions
> Message requests and safety numbers
> Encrypted identity backups
> A live 3D globe showing network circuits
> A SOCKS5 proxy port for compatible apps
> 10 languages support

...and more.

Your computer runs its own Anyone hidden service. Messages travel through the decentralized Anyone Protocol network, protected by end-to-end encryption and multiple layers of network encryption.

Private messaging, built around a different architecture.

Open source. Available now for Windows and Linux.

AnonChat today is a pure peer to peer desktop messenger. The trade-off is that a message is delivered only when both people are online at the same time.

Mailbox Swarms are our answer, and they are coming to AnonChat.

A mailbox peer is an independently operated, always-on machine that securely holds your messages while you are offline and hands them over when you return.

What to expect:

Always reachable: messages wait for you, so nobody has to keep the app open for delivery to work.

Sealed end to end: mailbox peers hold encrypted messages only. They cannot read them or see who sent them.

Peers you choose: run your own, or pick one operated by someone you trust, such as an Anyone Protocol relay operator. No default operator, no company in the middle.

Optional: Contacts without a mailbox keep working exactly as they do today.

This also lays the groundwork for bringing AnonChat to Android, where reliable offline message delivery is essential.

We're still building. More details coming.

AnonChat is not an official Anyone Protocol product. It was created and is maintained by an Anyone relay operator and community member.

True privacy needs more than encryption. It needs infrastructure that no single entity controls.

That's the idea behind building a network run by independent operators across the world.

The Anyone Protocol network now spans 5,865 active relays across 58 countries, creating a distributed infrastructure maintained by independent operators.

Why a distributed network matters:

1. No single point of control. There is no central server to seize, subpoena or switch off.

2. Knowledge is split. The entry relay sees who you are, not what you send. No single relay sees both.

3. Resilience by design. If relays drop or a region is blocked, traffic routes around them.

4. Independent operators. Different people, jurisdictions and providers have to be trusted collectively, not blindly.

5. Open participation. Anyone can run a relay, so the network grows with its community.

Run a relay. Strengthen the network. Get rewarded for contributing to a more private, decentralized internet.

Today, AnonChat has a limitation that comes from its design.

It runs peer to peer, with no central server. If you message someone who is offline, the message waits on your computer and is retried for up to 7 days. When two people are rarely online at the same time, messages can arrive late, or not at all once that limit is reached.

We don’t see this as a weakness. It is pure P2P in action: no company is holding your messages while you are away.

AnonChat was designed with privacy in mind. But for it to work for everyone, we also need to balance privacy, security, and ease of use.

The same challenge applies to mobile.

An Android app is part of our plans, but with the current design, keeping a phone continuously reachable would require persistent background activity, creating unacceptable battery consumption.

So, what do we need?

A place that's always reachable, has the capacity to store messages temporarily, and isn't controlled by a single company.

Does something like this already exist on the Anyone network?

It does: the nodes maintained by its operators.

That's where the idea of Mailbox Swarms comes in.

Mailbox peers, operated by participants on the Anyone network, would provide always-on mailboxes.

When a contact is offline, the sender can leave a message there, sealed with end-to-end encryption. Mailbox peers store the encrypted message without being able to read its contents, and remove it once the intended recipient successfully retrieves it.

The principles we're exploring:

1. Direct delivery first. P2P delivery remains the preferred method.
2. Privacy stays intact. End-to-end encryption and the transport through the Anyone network remain unchanged.
3. No default operator. Users choose which mailbox peers they trust.
4. Mobile becomes practical. Phones get somewhere to collect waiting messages without having to stay continuously reachable.

This is a design in progress, not a release yet. Nothing is built, and we would appreciate your feedback on the architecture.
