People like to say "email leaks metadata" but consider this: Delta apps do not store group metadata (memberlists, group names, avatars, keys) on servers. By comparison,
- #matrix stores group metadata unencrypted on home servers and replicates it to other federated matrix servers
- #signal stores encrypted group metadata on Amazon cloud servers
#deltachat uses a #p2p messaging model for encrypted group metadata where servers function as transport only.
@delta The delta group concept in its anarchic cooperativity is so far away from every kind of group we have *ever* seen based on *any* protocol, I can't even blame people if they find it hard to wrap their heads around it.
@unixtippse heh, probably.true :) however, we could layer a cryptographically secured hierarchy (admins) on top but for private messaging we still don't consider it worth our while.

Rather than introducing hierarchies, consider searching for moderation schemes that are simpler: https://support.delta.chat/t/beehive-moderation/3547
Decentralized #moderation is a huge design space with subjective moderation of Cabal (https://cabal.chat/) and Aether (https://getaether.net/) for large groups, or Matrix having to deal with moderation of a large number of public chats in a federated system (https://archive.fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event/decentralising_moderation/)
