Quick intro to Agora / Marginal Gains

Slack / Discord style community chat, but all client side encrypted and using your Nostr keys.



Features:

- Private Encrypted Team chat
- Multiple teams with segregated data
- Easily Self hosted
- Group chat, DMs, Note To self
- Group and Individual Kanban for coordination and management (this will be driving Wingman agents to work for you v. soon)
- Nostr native encryption, verification etc.

Key difference here is this is a full LEFT side of the bell curve solution.

It uses Nostr events, but I only transmit what I need to over relays for logins, integration elsewhere etc. For local work I keep it local on the server.

This makes all the coordination etc simple, and then there's been a bunch of thought given to how to hide everything from the server, so all chats are client side encrypted in the browser and no keys are ever revealed to the server 😉

Obviously MLS / Marmot for the long haul, but I needed something that worked now!
