Profile

For a long time, I've wanted a way to do realtime family/friend location sharing with e2ee.So I finally built one!Some details:- The protocol uses a Signal-style double-ratchet (though with some differences) for PFS/PCS (but no PQ, a la SPQR)- For simplicity and privacy, there's no persistent user identifier--just sessions. If you lose your phone, you and your friends have to re-pair.- Message sharing uses ephemeral "mailbox tokens" to make social network/metadata analysis difficult.Technical details here: https://where.af0.net/technical. Github here: https://github.com/danmarg/where.Thrilled to get feedback!

"Where" is an open source E2EE realtime location sharing app is positioned in show hn launch, a segment that rewards a clear, focused offering.
