Comment on Peersuite p2p encrypted discord alternative

@jerrimu A usability suggestion, having just tried it out - save the username and room password in the export file to make it more like a traditional chat experience. So when you import the chat file, the username and password are pre-populated along with the room name.

That’s a really good idea! Now in the roadmap.

I feel like saving the password in the export is a bad idea if security is your thing

@martinb @jerrimu I wrote the initial comment with the idea of saving just the username, but then figured "why not?" for the password. If the password is saved in browser memory (and based how I *think* the app functions, it would have to be), then it wouldn't be much different than saving a password in firefox's password manager (for example). Assuming reasonable crypto usage by the app, of course.

The export is password encrypted already. I’ll see if there’s a good way to do it.

Fair enough, it lowers the risk. Are you doing key stretching? Ie. X rounds of pbkdf or whatever it’s called?
