Macaroni Messenger is not a private messenger. Messages live in a git repository. If the repository is public, the chat is public. No surprises.

Access Token

The token is saved in localStorage. This is not a bank vault. This is an HTML file that warned you honestly. How to get an access token.

I understand that Macaroni Messenger does not promise privacy.

Repository

Access Token

The token is stored locally in this browser. Security level: we did warn you. How to get an access token.

Settings File

Settings export includes your access token. This is still not a bank vault.

Local Index

IndexedDB is a cache. If it breaks, rebuild it from the git repository.

I understand that messages are not private by default.
