Could you build this?
Partial Feeds, groups, and event UI are conventional app work. Sealed end-to-end messaging and calls and the fading-post model need careful cryptography and real-time media infrastructure that a solo vibe-coder would struggle to get right.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a mobile client with an audited E2EE protocol (such as the Signal protocol via existing libraries), WebRTC calling through a media server (SFU/TURN), and a backend with expiry and access controls. Security review and real-time infrastructure experience are needed to make the privacy claims credible.
