From their mastodon:

so my goal with sup. is to make a federated snapchat/whatsapp that is compatible with most platforms. This was originally going to be a Pixelfed specific Messenger-like app, but then it hit me - this is a perfect opportunity to create a sub project that could be eventually handed over to a trusted org.

Seems like a fine ambition but Pixelfed is still in beta and buggy as hell. I’d like to see that improve (so that more people will want to use it) first.

- I agree with you. Matrix and xmpp already work pretty well. There isn't really need for another messaging app. There are many other messaging apps as well.

This guy has like 6 different projects going on (Pixelfed, fedidb, Kbin app, Messenger app, etc.). I just wish he would focus on like one or two things instead.

seems interesting, but honestly I don't trust my mastodon instance they've already been raided before lol
