About

Session Desktop is a decentralized, onion-routed messenger for your computer. Messages are stored offline by a set of distributed service nodes, while other nodes route traffic to obscure your IP address.

The app integrates directly with Oxen Service Nodes, which are decentralized and resistant to Sybil attacks. Releases are signed, and the README walks you through checking the signature and file hashes on Linux, macOS and Windows. It is licensed under GPL-3.0.

Highlights

  • Onion routing hides your IP address
  • Messages stored offline on distributed service nodes
  • Signed releases with verification steps
