introducing Comm, a new kind of messaging app. we extend Signal-style encryption with a federation layer

Comm supports two kinds of chats:
1. Signal-style E2EE group chats & DMs
2. chat communities hosted on federated keyservers (like a modern IRC)

where Discord is chaotic and messy, Comm communities are organized and built for async

we're using Farcaster to bootstrap not just our social graph, but also our interest graph. when you log in with Farcaster, we'll automatically add you to communities based on the channels you follow

check it out: https://comm.app/download

Comm's onboarding is really well done! 

You sign in once with Farcaster, and start the app immediately with a network of friends you can talk to. 

More convinced SIWF is going to be really powerful building block for anyone doing consumer things in crypto.

can you explain what SIWF is through comparison, using privy (and the onboarding that a privy enabled app has)?

It’s equivalent to sign in with google. 

We authenticate that the user has a specific farcaster account.
