M8SH

Work in progress

A heavily extended Gitea fork with federated GPG-based auth, email-with-messenger-upgrade, any media streaming, and later — clients for secure interaction with the network (child control).

M8SH is what email should have evolved into... Now it is :D

What email got right was simplicity alongside decentralization: anyone could run a server and communicate freely, without a central controlling institution. What it got catastrophically wrong was everything else — cryptography, security, protocols, user experience.

In M8SH the naming convention stays the same — name@example.com — but it provides a full-fledged modernized API for different forms of interaction between users on the network: sharing music, videos, subscribing to each other, posting articles, sending private messages, all reusing that simple email naming — neo@m8sh.su. Ofc, backwards compatible with traditional email, just in case if required, since it's much easier when there is no need in: 1 - email, 2 - messenger, 3 - audio/video conference

Roadmap

1. 01 GPG-based registration, auth and authentication - federated by design
2. 02 Integrated email messenger with audio and video calls/conferences, cross-domain
3. 03 Fillable with any media from any source VLC server, compatible with all VLC applications
4. 04 Federated search - indexed across M8SH nodes, accessible via API
5. 05 Posts, articles, videos, reels, music, reactions, comments
