Databag

Databag is a federated messenger designed for people who want to host their own messaging service. Its documented capabilities include multifactor authentication, with testing noted for FreeOTP(+) from F-Droid, and support for Cloudflare’s TURN service for video and audio calls as an alternative to hosting coturn yourself. Android and F-Droid users get a download button for assets. Binary attachments can be restricted to the admin dashboard, while media files from sealed topics can be downloaded locally.

The program is aimed at self-hosting users. The available research does not define a more specific audience, provide installation instructions, or confirm platform availability beyond the Android and F-Droid references in the release notes. It also does not identify a paid product that Databag replaces, so a factual product comparison cannot be made. Consequently, there is no documented basis here for judging feature overlap or shortcomings against a commercial messenger. The supplied material likewise does not state pricing, licensing, or a broader feature set beyond the listed release-note items.
