[tor-talk] Wahay: Mumble + Onion Service

Sun May 31 06:16:11 UTC 2020

If you add an icon for Wahay, it can more easily be added to the Menu 
Editor in Internet as a "New Item".  The icon makes it more readily 
identifiable in the menu.  Adding it to the menu is pretty 
cut-and-dried.  It does start in Kubuntu 18.04, but I have not attempted 
yet to join any meetings nor to start one.

Sounds like a terrific addition to the arsenal of privacy!
