And while I understand all of this, I am also disheartened.
I've poured my soul in Cwtch these last few years because I fundamentally believe that that is how an application should be - locked down by default, open to extension, free and open source, based on sound cryptography, no centralized servers or magic peers or any other surveillance chokepoint.
And it's hard to see Cwtch failing in comparisons because those things are not features, they are limitations.
