This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on news.ycombinator.com

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Synapse

    Discontinued Synapse: Matrix homeserver written in Python/Twisted.

  • I'm wondering that too, or specifically how it compares to Matrix run as a Tor hidden service, which is apparently possible:

  • berty

    Berty is a secure peer-to-peer messaging app that works with or without internet access, cellular data or trust in the network

  • I'm not sure if Cootch is federated, like Matrix, or peer-to-peer. I assume the first, if Tor is being used?

    Berry also sounds similar, although it is not released yet: https://berty.tech/

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • pond

    Pond (by agl)

  • > ...self-at-home-hosted options pop up in this space around Tor onion services.

    See also: https://github.com/agl/pond

    With Snowflake bridges, apps can connect to the Tor network from within a browser.

  • bine

    Go library for accessing and embedding Tor clients and servers

  • Shameless plug, I also wrote a simple lib that makes onion services easy: https://github.com/cretz/bine (OP's project uses a fork of it and I plan on putting more time into it soon)

  • noise_wiki

    Wiki for Noise development

  • How do you mean? Could you link to where you could find that? Because I searched for 'metadata' in the Noise Protocol repository and came up with nothing (https://github.com/noiseprotocol/noise_wiki/search?q=metadat...)

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
