Contact tags and filtering by tags (done in the latest version).The ability to NOT store message history. Search for contacts in the contact list.A profile is a file, sqlite base, with all settings and message history. Advanced features such as metacontacts, audio / video calls, desktop sharing, group chats, message search, file transfer.Standard features of a spherical messenger, such as saving history, avatars, emoticons, notification of the arrival of a message, etc.Support for the simultaneous operation of several protocols (for example, you can have two tox connections with different IDs at once).Own protocol for communication within the local network (it was created mainly for debugging the plug-in system, but it is quite functional: everything is the same as in tox, except for video).Full support for all the current features of the tox protocol, including video calls (except for changing nospam, but I strongly doubt that there is a person in the world who really needed this opportunity to use).Now, when the first commit was 19 months old in my local hg repository and the 414th commit was made, I finally ripened before telling Habr to a wide audience about this client. In general, pushed by hostility to Skype, I took up the project of my dream messenger. When the first clients for the Tox network appeared, I thought: “hell, I can do it no worse!”. I really liked the idea underlying Tox: we write a protocol with all the necessary goodies, and you write clients to it. When I first heard about Tox, my degree of dislike for skype was still not too high, but I had already started looking for alternatives. In fact, this is an alternative to skype. Let me remind you: this is a free secure p2p protocol for transmitting messages, audio and video streams between participants in a Tox network.
