Terminal Phone – E2EE Walkie Talkie from the Command Line▲322
TerminalPhone is a single, self-contained Bash script that provides anonymous, end-to-end encrypted voice and text communication between two parties over the Tor network. It operates as a walkie-talkie: you record a voice message, and it is compressed, encrypted, and transmitted to the remote party as a single unit. You can also send encrypted text messages during a call. No server infrastructure, no accounts, no phone numbers. Your Tor hidden service .onion address is your identity.

Dock – Slack minus the bloat, tax, and 90-day memory loss▲177
Hey HN – I built Dock after years of team chat frustrations as a founder. Free forever for teams up to 5. Unlimited search, unlimited history. No "upgrade to see messages older than 90 days" nonsense. Built for teams who work both async and sync/real-time when it matters. runs on SOC 2 infra, compliant, secure and in-transit and at-rest encryption, runs on Cloudflare. Early stage – would love feedback from anyone who's felt the same pain.

AIMless – a 10 KB single file P2P chat app with zero dependencies▲13
I built AIMless, a ridiculously minimalistic, browser native chat app that fits entirely into one HTML file (10 KB). It’s decentralized, P2P, and has no build tools, no server, and no frameworks. Just you, your browser, and a copy/pasted blob or two.
