Rift

You live in the Rift. Portals take you anywhere.

Rift is a privacy oriented chat and voice platform for adults. One place for communities, DMs, voice, and personal tools - not an app you open once and forget.

What you get
• Shards: your communities, with text, voice, forums, galleries, tickets, polls, and more built in
• Portals: music, weather, calendar, feeds, and other tools right next to your chat
• The Rift Lobby: step into ephemeral rooms, match on interests, shuffle when you want
• End-to-end encrypted DMs (Signal Protocol). We cannot read them.
• Real deletion: purged, not soft-deleted
• Native moderation and other tools - no "invite a bot"

Signup is a username and a password.
Email?Phone?ID? Nah.
Your Rift Key recovers your account and roots your encryption.

Privacy:
Subscriptions only. No: ads, data sales, behavioral profiling, AI training.

Direct messages are end-to-end encrypted. Shard (community) messages are encrypted at rest.

Who it's for
Adults 18+ only. Think lounge, not an adult-content site. The age gate is so we never have to collect email, phone, or ID from everyone and users can enjoy a mature environment.

Free to join and use. Paid tiers expand storage and space - they don't unlock the core experience.
