    There's no identification requirement (phone number, email, etc). Only Loki entry nodes see your IP address. Swarms of nodes cache messages, and there are no central servers to be compromised. Session is a fork of Signal, and Loki is a fork of ZeroNet.

    I'm 0525c5ba8a4bc6fc6f107b637b5107b6b7abfd1153ea042b5e9fe474acb5d9cf35 if y'all would like to chat.

    Looks interesting. If I'll ever need something like that I'll surely test it.
    So far I've used Signal but very few friends have it so I use it rarely. I guess it's even less likely that they would use Session :)

    I just sent you a message! I guess you'll remain my only contact on Session, though ;)

    EDIT: I'm 0546415a6b65efba5dad635c9dc72b3deee7174d6053cddc7ffdd12ddc44c41e48

    Same here, but that's ok. My friends only use it when they feel the need for total privacy. This way we are able to maintain a facade of being privacy/security "newbs".

    Oh no they have your Tor exit node's IP, LOL!
