What is Selene?

Selene is a comprehensive peer-to-peer chat and file sharing application built on the Tor network. It enables secure, private communication and seamless file transfers between users, leveraging the anonymity and resilience of Tor.

Key features:

  • True peer-to-peer messaging: messages travel exclusively over the Tor network, never leaving Tor at any point
  • End-to-end RSA encryption for messages, with selectable key lengths: 2048, 4096, or 8192 bits
  • File sharing via ephemeral Tor hidden service HTTP servers: recipients access files directly using the provided onion address in Tor Browser or any Tor-enabled private window
  • Request new Tor circuits and onion addresses for improved connectivity and privacy
  • Configurable Tor ports for advanced users
  • Contact export/import and rich messaging features including emojis and file transfers
  • Advanced logging system and chat history management
  • Password protection at startup for enhanced privacy
  • Cross-platform: built with Qt Framework

Selene is designed for privacy advocates and secure communication enthusiasts, offering a robust suite of features for confidential, flexible, and user-friendly Tor-based messaging and file sharing.
