Show HN: So.ciety, an end-to-end encrypted social network

Building a social network takes a lot of work. If you open source this codebase you will have people to help you build it and you will get the product launched faster.

As long as we can trust you to share your code, we don't mind helping you build this and using your server as the network hub. If the server was ever taken over, only a couple days (or hours) worth of posts would be compromised before someone noticed.

That is no comparison to google plus, facebook, or hacker news - even with nasty in-browser encryption.

The more help, the better! I will be open sourcing this ASAP, just want to iron out the biggest bugs and clean up the source (just a little) before putting it on Github.

Giving access to my server however isn't something I'd really consider, without physically being next to the person.

Oh, I wasn't suggesting that you give access to your server. Just that I wouldn't mind using a site hosted on your server (it has to be hosted somewhere).
