Encrypted email, the first piece of an open privacy stack

Elusive is encrypted email built on honesty over claims. Instead of promising "we can't read your mail," it shows you the exact line between what's sealed to your key and what the server can see, on the front page. Your key is made in your browser and never leaves it. Free, no ads, no tracking. t's step one of a full open-source privacy architecture: a communicator and file sharing come next, on the same keys. Closed source today, honest about it. Source opens at 300 users, audit at 1,000.
honestly this transparency angle is refreshing, the front page breakdown of what the server can and can't see is a smart move. one thing though, could you add a way to export or back up the key as a qr code or something simple for non technical folks? like my mom could probably use this if the recovery wasn't just a giant string of characters she'd lose.
@necdet615225 Thanks, Necdet! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback.
You're absolutely right about the recovery experience. I already have plans to make it much more user friendly, including an option to back up or export the key as a QR code so people who aren't technical don't have to deal with a long string of characters.
Thanks again for the suggestion, and I hope you keep enjoying the project as it grows. It genuinely helps shape what gets built next.
@necdet615225 Thanks again for the suggestion, Necdet! Quick update: QR code backup and restore is already live, so there's no need to keep track of a long recovery string anymore. I actually wrote a bit more about it here if you're curious: https://elusivemail.xyz/updates.
And we'd genuinely love to have your mom as a user. 😊 One of the biggest goals with Elusive is making strong privacy feel approachable, not intimidating. If she ever gives it a try, I'd love to hear what she finds confusing or what could be even simpler,that kind of feedback is incredibly valuable.
