Here’s my problem: every F(L)OSS and E2EE solution that I know of requires other people to download an app or log in.

I want to reduce the friction for others to communicate for me. I want to give a business card with a URL where people can go and immediately send messages to my Matrix or my email or something, and they don’t need to log in at all.

They just open their browser, go to snek_boi.io or whatever and a chat appears.

A couple of years ago, I was suggested Cactus Comments. I suppose that works, but I was wondering if there are other solutions. I was wondering if now there was an even easier solution for my purposes.

    This sounds amazing. It’s unfortunate that Graphene OS has so much toxicity around it, but this design decision is amazing. Love it.

    I tried quickly looking for the feature, but I couldn’t find it. I searched for “Graphene OS Matrix chat homepage guest user”, “Graphene OS chat homepage guest user”, “Graphene OS chat homepage”, and “Graphene OS homepage QR” but didn’t find what you mentioned.

        You’re bringing up a fair point, similar to “can you separate the art from the artist”? I think it’s possible; I’ve seen mean and disparaging people do amazing work. Heck, at times I’ve been a cranky worker cranking out good work.

        However, I also know that toxic people are hard to work with and limit their own potential and that of others. A quick look at the ACT literature, the intrinsic motivation literature, the learned-helplessness literature, and the Lybomirsky et al. meta-analyses from 2008 and 2018 all point to the same idea: psychologically flexible people are happier and that leads to better work and more productivity, but not the other way around.
