@scottjenson That said, if it’s much easier to make the other improvements, it might be worth it to ship them without waiting on E2EE to be ready (but it should still be worked on).

Also, some Fediverse services do support E2EE, like @HolosSocial.

@scottjenson I think that every message not meant as a public broadcast should be end-to-end encrypted, regardless of the app or service that people use to send it. People shouldn’t have to worry if the information they’re exchanging is private and secure or not. It should be table-stakes these days, just like HTTPS is for websites. When you create a website, you don’t ask yourself if it’s sensitive enough to need it, it’s just common practice to generate an HTTPS certificate for everything.
