Ideally I would not have to trust the signalling server to ensure I'm transferring files to who I think I am[0]. Not as much of a knock against your project as a knock against webRTC in general. [0]: https://webrtchacks.com

I looked around and couldn't find a description of the protocol by which two peers authenticate to each other/transfer files. Also, is the E2EE encryption referred to simply whatever is being used to encrypt the transport(DTLS&#x

For your KDF, how did you select the parameters for Argon2id? How often is the KDF invoked / what are your requirements for speed in KDF'ing? Nit, but your "pepper" is confusingly named IMO, because it is hardcoded and

Depending on the kind of questions you're asking it, the mistral finetunes may be much better positioned to give a high quality answer. An apples-to-apples comparison IMO would be Mistral 7B instruct vs Llama3 8b instruct.

Yes, however there's a big difference between Cloudflare and an arbitrary MITM. If you think Cloudflare is mangling traffic in a malicious way you would need a shred of evidence to substantiate that claim. I would also push back that

From my understanding, the command payload is not an RSA private key. It is an SSH certificate's public key field, a section of which contains the signed command to be executed.

I see it as an incentive problem. How are the maintainers of these projects to receive the support they need? Companies like AWS are incentivized to take all they can take and contribute nothing in return, "it's FOSS, baby"

Talking GGUF, Usually the higher you can afford to go wrt. quantization(e.g. Q5 is better than Q4, etc), the better. A Q6_K has minimal performance loss from the Q8, so in most cases if you can fit a Q6_K it's recommended to just use t
