Hi
I documented myself about Monero and it seem really great !
I would like to start my own node but obviously before I have some questions and I would like to exchange about it.
Like lemmy is still “marginal” but growing, the community’s are still low, so I went on the official website of Monero but I see that they only propose linear chat services that require that you identify yourself ! or belong to GAFAM and that goes quite to the opposite of what Monero fight for to preserve your right to anonymity.
Do you know a crowded lemmy community where I could exchange with other Monero enthusiasts or anything else that is a like a built-in board forum where when you have a question you can open a dedicated thread and exchange on that thread ?
Thanks.


On an anonymous and private messenger https://getsession.org/ is a Monero community https://session.directory/view_session_group_user_lokinet.php?id=2785 , even it is not crowded, but you will be likely replied daily.
Thanks @[email protected] But sadly I don’t use
sessionas it’s not a secure IM app. ( dig in Lemmy you will see ) For my part I use now SimpleXWrong, it is a secure app. There has been no reproducible proof to the contrary. Most often people says it does not support PFS, but “PFS is only relevant in the case where your long term private key is obtained by the attacker. The only way this should occur is if the attacker has access to your device/seed” It would take a whole Bitcoin network billions of years to break just single user encryption, per my understanding.
