1I built Moli P2P because I wanted a way to share images directly with peers without leaving a permanent record on any server.
The Philosophy: "Presence is Storage" The gallery exists only in the RAM of active peers. There is no database, no S3 bucket, and no central storage. When everyone closes the tab, the gallery vanishes.
The Tech Stack:
* Signaling Server: Rust (Axum + Tokio). Acting as a dumb pipe for WebRTC signaling and STUN/TURNauth. It stores nothing. * Client: TypeScript + Vite. Uses WebRTC DataChannels for all file transfers. * Security: Ephemeral TURN credentials, cryptographic identity enforcement, and a "Circuit Breaker" to prevent DoS. Why "Sovereign"? We implemented a strict "Sakoku" (Isolation) policy. Moderation is local to your node. If I block a peer, my node stops relaying their content to me. There is no central authority to "ban" users globally.
It is open source (AGPLv3) and designed to be self-hosted easily with Docker.

I'd love to hear your feedback on the architecture and our approach to ephemeral p2p networks.
