Just wanted to separate this out as a feature request: implementing end-to-end encryption in the new chat feature.

I think this could be a game-changer, in terms of me as an admin not wanting to have access to people’s personal chat messages, me as a member not wanting other admins to have access to my personal chats, and also in how Discord, Slack, and most others don’t offer this as an option.

I imagine it may not be a first priority, and yet hope it’ll come in the next 7 months 🙂 Thank you for all you do with Discourse and the new chat function.
