Is it fully anonymous?

davidemerson commented 2 weeks ago

The registration process assigns a friendly name, avatar, and uuid to the registrant. Otherwise, though, yes, this is fully anonymous. Anything which identifies the user, whether a friendly name or UUID or avatar, is generated by the application such that no user information or input is provided outside the invite code and PINs for duress and normal access.

This is intentional, we don't, by default, want users to be identified in our system. If they choose to tell each other their friendly names or UUIDs, etc, that is their perogative, but we don't want to store that association with their identities in our systems.
