Peergos is a peer-to-peer, end-to-end encrypted global filesystem with fine-grained cryptographic access control, built on IPFS/libp2p with post-quantum security. It also provides a secure messenger, encrypted email client, and a private social network where users control who sees what.

Use cases

• store files encrypted in a decentralized p2p cloud
• share files and folders via secret links without accounts
• run a private social network where I control who sees my posts
• self-host my own encrypted cloud storage server
• chat and email with end-to-end encryption
• protect my data from surveillance including friendship graph metadata
• back up photos and documents privately across devices

When to choose

• you want user-owned, end-to-end encrypted storage resistant to surveillance
• you need decentralized sharing without trusting a central provider
• you want post-quantum cryptography and cryptographic access control
• you prefer self-hosting your data on IPFS-compatible infrastructure

When to avoid

• you need mature integrations with mainstream cloud ecosystems or standard S3 APIs
• you require high-performance POSIX filesystem semantics or local disk mounting at scale
• you want a widely adopted platform with a large user base and third-party app ecosystem
• you need simple drop-in cloud backup with minimal setup
