Are there any plans to implement encryption for private messages using a public key attached to the Fediverse account?
I understand that the metadata would not be encrypted, but that would be more than sufficient for many use cases. The decentralised nature of the Fediverse is a major advantage in the fight against censorship.

@adele yes!

It uses MLS to implement encrypted messaging over ActivityPub. Bonfire and Emissary have working implementations, and Mastodon will implement it later this year.
Thanks @evan
Great, I hope this movement will be followed by other server apps such as #gotosocial
@adele me too!
