cool app. i think a lot of people may think you're talking about quantum computers, think it's above their paygrade, and then not even open the link. I am interested in using, but it's a barrier to find someone else to use as well. Curious how much AI was used to build the app if you're comfortable sharing?

I do recommend getting rid of all the mdashes and AI generated phrases in the readme, otherwise people will correctly infer it was an AI generated readme and pass the app by. I think AI slop tells may be offputting especially for a security focused app where people are trusting you did the cryptography correctly
Thanks, AI was heavily used in the development since I am not a frontend developer and needed the UI for extension + Ios swift. I know cryptography so backend and underlying infra was built by me + backend, have good understanding there.

Thanks for the comments, I think its useful to create bot accounts across all social media so the users can immediately try out the encryption without having to bring their acquitances at this early stages.. + It can act as a verifier to verify your ownership of the actual accounts whenever you are adding them to your profile!

Appreciate the feedback
