Open source P2P alternative to Slack and Discord built on Tor and IPFS

What you're defining is possible future feature parity, not feature parity.

A project does not have feature parity until the features are actually built—promises that the features are possible and if you really wanted it you could build it yourself are nice in their own way, but they're not features.

You're technically correct (the best kind of correct), but in the context of this comment thread the comment I was replying to said:

> many messaging softwares seem to not understand what feature parity is.

That implies either no intent to implement feature parity, or having had enough time & resources to do so without bothering to. Neither of those things are the case here - hence my breakdown.

I've edited my comment to better address your particular point though, thanks.
