Hello tor-dev,I'm the developer of Selene — a Tor-based peer-to-peer chat and file sharing application.What Selene is:- A chat app where each instance generates its own onion address- Peers share addresses with each other directly (no public discovery)- Files are shared as HTTP servers between confirmed contacts only- Built-in OBFS4 and WebTunnel bridge supportWhat Selene is NOT:- A Tor browser. You cannot browse .onion sites.- A gateway to the darknet. There is no public discovery of anything.- A general-purpose anonymity tool. It's just for private chat between people who already know each other.Encryption — and this matters:On top of Tor's end-to-end anonymity (everything stays inside the Tor network, never leaving it), Selene adds its own application-layer encryption:- Messages: RSA encryption (user-configurable up to 8192 bits)- Files: AES-256 encryptionSo even if someone were to compromise the Tor hidden service connection, the data itself remains encrypted with Selene's own keys. Defense in depth.Why I built it:I needed a p2p chat app that doesn't require opening ports on routers or corporate firewalls. Privacy and encryption came after solving that core need.Current availability:- Flathub: https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.alamahant.Selene- Arch Linux AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/selene-p2p- Gentoo overlay: https://github.com/alamahant/alamahant-overlay/tree/master/net-p2p/selene- GitHub: https://github.com/alamahant/SeleneWhat I'm asking:I'm not requesting formal endorsement. I would simply appreciate it if someone on the team could take a look. If you find it useful, consideration for inclusion in the Tor Browser User Manual or community resources would mean a lot.I'm posting here at Gus's suggestion after reaching out to frontdesk.Thank you for Tor — I couldn't have built this without it.With respect,Alamahant
