D-Chat desktop is not just another chat app. It is 100% secure and private, because it works without any servers. Everything goes peer to peer and encrypted. More features than Signal, Telegram, Discord, and Slack? No! More private? You bet!
We all heard that Discord is demanding ID verification. We all heard that Signal and Telegram are not that private and secure, because the entire registration and directory goes to centralized servers. So what is the alternative? How about a secure and private desktop messaging app that does not requite you to set up own servers? If this is something you might like, try D-Chat desktop. It is open source, supporting MacOS, Windows, and Linux. It has enough features without the privacy burdens.

Hey everyone!
I’m Bruce, the creator of D-Chat Desktop.
Most 'private' messengers today still rely on central servers to route your metadata, store your contacts, or verify your phone number. I wanted something different—a messenger that actually belongs to the user.
D-Chat Desktop is a fully decentralized, end-to-end encrypted messenger built on the NKN network of over 6,000 relay servers. It’s an Electron port of the popular nMobile app, bringing serverless 1-to-1 chat, private groups, and even P2P voice calls to your desktop.
Key Technical Highlights:
No Servers: Messages are relayed via P2P relay network.
Zero Metadata Leakage: No phone numbers, no emails, no central logs.
Hardened Security: Local data is protected by SQLCipher (AES-256) and keyed to your unique wallet seed.
True Sovereignty: Your identity is a cryptographic key pair that stays on your device.
I’m excited to hear your feedback and answer any technical questions about the NKN implementation or the security architecture. Let's build a more decentralized web together!"
