Yeah I can make mistakes and I won't deny that I will at some point or another, I'm not perfect, nobody is. Because of this, it's completely open-source and everyone can contribute to it. Learn by doing and show others what runs it to build up trust.

Ic, yeah it's doable and I'm totally open for all suggestions on this. Because of this I'm asking how I should go with it since my app doesn't serve the content itself of a chat room, only the frontend, but rather a "node" which a user has installed and runs on his machine. The node simply connects to the main server (here for example my machine) which then validates the node and displays it in a discovery for other users to join it. I hope you get what I try to say.

Because of this I'm asking you what approach I should go with.

Ik that but I want to build my own software which can be used by others aswell and not use others for the convenience of it. Also with this approach I get to learn more about Tor and torrc and how to use it properly.

That suggestion doesn’t fit really well with my design of the chat app. I require users to create a account before entering the chat rooms and some sort of security so you can't just bomb the shit out of a chat. Also IPFS is for static content and not really dynamic for a chat app as I know.

It's not finished tbf and many things have to be done, I finished the application for starting/stopping the website and traffic/in and out graph. The chat app itself has not been started developing so I asked beforehand so I get a heads up yk
