Hi Product Hunt! I built BLITE because I wanted a Discord-like experience for communities and friend groups that actually care about privacy. Every existing alternative either compromises on features or compromises on encryption - I wanted both. Under the hood: messages use a Signal-inspired double-ratchet style E2EE with per-channel sender keys, DMs use X25519 key exchange, and voice/video calls are encrypted with per-session keys. Your private keys never leave your device unencrypted - a recovery key system lets you restore access on new devices without us ever seeing your secrets. It's early days — the desktop app is in beta (Windows SmartScreen may flag the installer since it's unsigned, just click "More info - Run anyway") and the web app at blite.chat works great right now. Would love feedback from the PH community. What features matter most to you in a private messaging app?
