OffCode Tor encrypted chat

Setting up your own self hosted chat server has never been this easy. No port forwarding, no cloud account, and no complicated setup. Tor Chat is designed to make secure self hosting simple. Tor Chat lets anyone stand up their own chat on the Tor network. No cloud account and no clearnet bind. Guests open your .onion in Tor Browser. Every message is encrypted in the browser with WebCrypto before it reaches the host. ChatServer relays and stores ciphertext only. Host with Server Manager on Windows, or headless Docker (ChatServer + Tor HS). Password rooms are server blind E2EE, so the host cannot derive the room key. Open rooms still encrypt in the browser, but the key is derived from the room ID, creating intentional public channels. Hidden rooms stay off the public list and use invite links. Add a password for private E2EE. Creators get Settings for closed joins, slow mode, lock later, and delete room, plus a Profile recovery code (My Rooms for hidden). Required message TTL, E2EE attachments, and optional Full Vanguards complete the stack.
