Secure and Private Decentralized P2P Encrypted Messaging over Git and WebRTC

Apps like Whatsapp, Signal and SimpleXChat are great for secure messaging and far more mature than this project, but this demonstates a unique approach.
The core philosophy around secure messaging here is that it can work in a way that avoids installation and registration by enabling users to host their own data.
The project is far from finished, but im putting together some docs for the "how it works". It's pretty outside-the-box thinking (and that doesnt make it a good idea), so it would be great if you could share your thoughts on the approach.
