FluffyChat Encryption via Pantalaimon
-
@jimmypesto the click pacakges for both 32bit and 64bit should be available now on https://git.sr.ht/~thrrgilag/pantalaimon-ut/refs/0.4.0
-
@thrrgilag nah I just want to get your software up and running.
Thanks for your quick support. Awesome!
Can you help me to get back into a clean state? I feel like I'm stuck...
-
@jimmypesto you can just blow away that build folder on your device. The click package has a UI that you can use to set and update your settings as well as enable or disable the background service.
-
@thrrgilag thanks a lot.
I was able to install the click package without any errors. -
So I was able to activate Pantalaimon, and use it from Fluffy Chat. Its really easy thanks to your work.
It seems like encryption is working but within Element Clients I get this red warning sign besides each message from the Pantalaimon + Fluffy combo that says its not encrypted.
I played around a lot. My understanding of everything is still basic but I did not find a way get rid of this. Am I doing sth. wrong? -
@jimmypesto it has to do with verification of the client session (or lack thereof). Unforunatly that isn't exposed through a UI right with this build. You can blindly verify the session through Element but otherwise as it stands there isn't a good way to do it atm.
-
@thrrgilag Today Fluffy crashed and I had to login again. Afterwards the warning sign was gone.
Hmn but in the Fluffy encryption options I can see the keys used for verification and I can enable/disable these.
Is there a recommended way to set up E2EE between two ppl with lets say 2 devices each (and one of these is UB Fluffy + Pantalaimon)?
Im just getting started, sry for all these questions and thanks for your support.

Don't forget if you have to sign in again, that fluffy is pointing to pantalaimon

Because there isn't any controls available from the UB Fluffy+Pantalaimon side you'll have to start the encrypted chat using another client that supports encryption such as Element. Once you've done that it should work in UB Fluffy. Keep in mind that if you have previously encrypted messages those won't be decryptable since you can't easily import the keys from another session. But new messages should decrypt just fine.

For those who aren't already aware, the latest FluffyChat update fixes the broken image issue when used with Pantalaimon.

@thrrgilag nice!
May I ask what keeps you from uploading the app to the OpenStore? I think it is useful the way it is right now.

At this point I think it's mostly a matter of me not having the time to chase it down. I'll see if I can dig up that information and figure out what that process is to get it approved and submitted in the next week or so.
