Encrypted P2P messenger over Tor. No servers, no accounts.
Zerion launched on June 25, 2026 with 2 votes.
What it does
Zerion is a messenger built around one idea: there should be nothing to hand over, ban, or breach. Everything runs over Tor including voice and video calls. No phone number, no email, no central server. Your contacts are onion addresses. Post-quantum triple ratchet on every message. Dual profiles for plausible deniability. Encrypted local storage with anti-forensics. Public and private channels. Account backup encrypted with Argon2id and AES-256-GCM, transferable over Tor. Open source

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
