p2p apps that don't want your soul — no accounts, no ads, no servers, nothing sold.

what this is

a small constellation of p2p apps. Every one of them runs entirely in your browser, and your browsers talk directly to each other — there is no company in the middle, no database, nothing between you and the people you invited.

an invite link is the only door there is. Share it and someone is in; don't, and no one is.

no accounts

there is nothing to sign up for. One key, created here in the you tab, is you everywhere — chat, board and the games all recognize it automatically. It never leaves your browsers, so there's no password to reset and no one who can lock you out.

no servers

no database to breach, no feed to optimize, no outage to wait through. A room exists because your people have its link; what happens there lives in your devices and theirs, nowhere else.

sealed end to end

everything is encrypted between the people in the room. There is no "we" that receives it — not to keep it safe, not to study it, not to hand it over. We couldn't read your rooms if we wanted to, and we like it that way.

nothing is for sale

no ads, no tracking, no engagement metrics, no data going anywhere. Nothing here is trying to keep you scrolling or measure how long you stayed. These apps only want to be useful, and then to get out of the way.

how to take part

install this page as an app — your browser will offer it, or use "add to home screen". Then bring one friend; everything here is better with someone in the room.

all of it is open source — every repo clones straight from git.ardegazu.ro:

git clone https://git.ardegazu.ro/chat.git

the fine print, honestly

a few things this design honestly costs. Presence lasts only while a tab is open — close it and you quietly go dark. Leaderboards show what your browser has verified from other players, not one central truth. One small signal server helps browsers find each other and holds sealed invites for friends who are offline — it carries envelopes it cannot open, and no room ever passes through it. And your key is your identity: lose it and there is no recovery desk — save it in a password manager, or keep the export file somewhere safe.

more apps are coming. If you have an idea for something that should exist without accounts or ads, talk it over in a room with your people — that is where these apps come from.
