this makes more sense if you understand public and private keys
when encrypting a message, there are two keys. the public key can only be used to encrypt and the private key to decrypt. a recipient will put its public key out and a peer wishing to send it a message will use this key to encrypt it. once the message arrives, the recipient can use their private key to then decrypt the message
peer to peer means that the information goes from one “peer” (device) to the other, no middleman
end to end encrypted means that the message is encrypted before transit and is then decrypted at the other “end” once it’s on the recipient’s device. end to end could have a server acting as a middleman, storing these encrypted messages, allowing for chat logs to be stored more conveniently and messages to be sent while one peer is offline.
I’m on glitch soc instead of mastodon and I’ve liked it a lot
it pretty much fixes most of my biggest gripes with mastodon and I hide the counters anyway because the number isn’t very important to me
