Groups/channels as hubs

[AnthyG]

This is actually something that I've already said that I want to do it. But I haven't yet experimented with the hub or merger feature or whatever it actually is, so this won't be until unknown times.

For scalability, move all group/channel data to its hubs, when you launch this feature.

[AnthyG]

I can't move anything to anything because I have absolutely no way of knowing what messages belong to which group. Also, I think the hub-for-group/channel should rather be optional, though I will think about this more, when I've actually made this feature.

[danimesq]

You need to attribute messages to groups, or the app will be huge.

[AnthyG]

Well I can understand that for the future, but it still doesn't help me in any way, because as I said before, I do not know which messages belong to which group. That's the whole point of full encryption for the messages. Nobody is supposed to know which message belong to which group.

[danimesq]

I think you can encrypt messages but attribute it to a group. Or implement hubs now for app's size sake.

He's saying he wouldn't know where to move the existing messages because they are fully encrypted to ensure nobody can even see what group they are in.

[danimesq]

Yes. When entering site, there is a message about that all messages can be deleted since it is in early development stage. When in stable, chat groups/channels as hubs is a need.

[krixano]

He's already said he will do it for new messages when he implements it in the future.

[danimesq]

Sorry for the misunderstood. I forgot that the messages will be deleted for reduce app size, while hubs are not implemented.
