For the past year I've been working on an activitypub federated instant messenger called Shoot.
I haven't had time to work on it for a while because of my job, so I'm making it public to see if anyone would be interested in helping out.

You can find the server repo here: https://github.com/MaddyUnderStars/shoot
and the client repo here: https://github.com/MaddyUnderStars/shoot-client

Featureset currently includes:
- Dm channels
- Friends/relationships
- Guilds
- Guild channels
- Guild invites
- Voice calls (not yet federated)
- Mostly working federation with itself
- Iffy federation with other platforms

There's no official instance yet, but I could host one if there is interest.

What I need help with most is:
- Frontend development. The client code is very hacky and gross, let alone the UI haha
- Safety features
- Probably general architecture stuff

Thanks all
