@Hyolobrika@social.fbxl.net If you wanted to implement encryption on the fediverse how would you implement it?

Would you turn it into an addon like GPG for email? Where you first have to validate each other's keys using another third party service or meeting face to face.

How will you sync your keys between various different sessions and devices in such a way that you can always view your entire message history?

How will you protect other data, that is potentially more sensitive than the contents of your message, such as metadata? How are you gonna make sure the server admin sees any of those?

If you can solve all of these challenges without giving everyone massive inconveniences then you can convince me that encryption on the fediverse is a good idea.
