Chika, a free server designed for Delta Chat users
Chika means gossip in Tagalog.
Welcome to instant, interoperable, and privacy-centric chat run by Aangat Lahat / Durian Distro.
Delta Chat is a decentralized messenger that allows people to chat with each other even if they're on different servers. This is just one of many, and it has the following features:
- No phone numbers, email addresses, real names, etc. are needed for an account.
- 300M of storage space for users.
- Server keeps messages for at most 60 days.
- (Don't worry this only affects you if you're offline for this long.)
- People aren't allowed to send unencrypted messages.
- It does not store IP addresses.
- Inactive accounts are deleted after 2 years.
Feel free to use Orbot or a trusted VPN when you're using this service as well for increased privacy.
Nazis fuck off
This service built around the concept of care and mutual aid. Since data extraction and surveillance is everywhere in our digital world, I wanted to share a server that gives free, private, and secure communications to people. We need to take care and help each other, now more than ever.
So if you're using this service to practice the opposite like promoting fascism, nazism, militarism, copaganda, zionism, state nationalism, antisemitism, or contributing to the discrimination, harassment or harm against any individual or group through forms of discrimination based on gender, race, religion or sexual orientation, along with issuing statements which are racist, xenophobic, ableist or discriminatory in any other form, you will be blocked. Also, don't use this service to promote your businesses.
If you have the following or similar kinds of ideologies or affiliations, you are not welcome here:
- Neo-fascism (white supremacy / white nationalism / neo-nazi / alt-right / alt-light / identitarian / male supremacy / manosphere)
- Reactionary (GamerGate / anti-feminism / neo-reactionary)
- Neo-feudalism ('anarcho'-capitalism / 'objectivism' / right-wing libertarians)
- TERF, SWERF or otherwise anti-trans or anti-sex worker
- Truscum, transmed or other kinds of identity policing.
- People who are generally phobic/shitty towards non-binary genders.
- Religious fundamentalism or anti-abortion.
- Militarism, chauvinism, ethno-nationalism, xenophobia or similar.
- Pro-bestiality/zoophilia
- People who share sexualized images of children (lolicon)
- Tech bros (capitalists promoting AI / cryptocurrency / tech businesses)
If you work in any capacity (whether as a direct employee or a contractor) for any of the following types of organisations, you aren't welcome here, and if you reveal yourself as such, you will be blocked:
- Military
- Police
- Immigration enforcement
However, deologies or affiliations based on counter-violence in opposition to oppression (like antifa/antifascism) are welcome here.
