I believe this is something being worked on through Mastodon as well as a few other people are working on it but yes it would be amazing to see some E2EE for the Fediverse
As far as I can tell, the first implementation is on a new platform called emissary. They use the hashtag mls, which I follow because it’s also the name of a soccer league I follow. I think they’re estimating 6 months left, but then we’ll have to wait for all the other platforms to pick it up as well.
Yeah idk. I had a bunch of people up in my mentions the other day saying that federated end-to-end encryption is not actually technically feasible, but to be honest, a lot of it was over my head. I’m trying to work through what all they said, but I’ve still got a fair bit of reading ahead of me.

That would be amazing to see, I can’t wait to see things like that come about and hopefully integrate into each other properly through open protocols

It is certainly possible as there is E2EE through some Email Providers and Email is a Decentralized system as well.
