Discussify Extension

Unlock a fully decentralized layer of discussion on any website.

Built on IPFS, Discussify provides a real-time, peer to peer, and permanent discussion platform for anyone to join and participate.


Feature Highlight:

— Real-time discussion with peers.
— Edit and remove your messages.
— Sub-thread discussions.
— Authentication via uPort.


Disclaimer:

This is a \"POC phase 1\" release (https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/pm-discussify#roadmap), with the goal of gathering feedback from the community and improving the overall user experience.

Feel free to provide feedback here on the store, or on Github: https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/pm-discussify/issues

Discussions are discarded in this stage, so feel free to try and comment as much as you like, but keep in mind that updates will typically clear any previous conversations. You can manually install previous versions to access any old discussions, if you must (https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/pm-discussify#installing).

Discussions are also only persisted in peers, the people who have previously seen the discussion, meaning that the discussion is only online if at least one of these peers is online. This handicap will be addressed on the MVP milestone (https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/pm-discussify#mvp).

The codebase hasn't been audited by security specialists and it shouldn't be used to store, share or publish sensitive information.
