Your Digital Conversations Are Permanent. I Built an App to Fix That.
Introducing TrashTalk.me: A free, ephemeral, end-to-end encrypted chat that leaves no trace.
Every message you send, every file you share—it all lives somewhere. In your chat history, on a server, in a backup. Our digital lives are recorded by default. I wanted a way to have a private conversation online with the same finality as a whispered secret, so I built TrashTalk.me.
It's a disposable, peer-to-peer chat app built on a simple idea: your conversation should never have happened.
How It Works
Click one button. A unique, private chat link is instantly generated.
Share the link with the one person you want to talk to.
Chat and transfer files. Everything is end-to-end encrypted.
When one person leaves, the chat is permanently destroyed. No accounts, no sign-ups, no cookies, no history.
Privacy by Design, Not by Policy
Unlike other services, TrashTalk.me’s privacy is built into its architecture.
No Database, No Logs: The Python backend is a stateless matchmaker. It keeps no records of chats, users, or IP addresses.
End-to-End Encryption (E2EE): All messages and files are encrypted on your device using the Web Crypto API. The unencrypted content never touches the server. I, the owner, cannot see what you’re saying.
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) First: After a handshake, data flows directly between you and your peer using WebRTC for better privacy and speed.
This was a passion project built for developers sharing secrets, friends planning surprises, or anyone who believes not every conversation needs to be saved forever.
TrashTalk.me is live and free to use. I’d love to hear what you think.
