I would love to like this but it doesn't provide anything more secure than the apps out there that already have end to end encryption like Signal. It doesn't stop a govt storing the data to decrypt later. They broke TOR and they can break this too eventually.

It remove the central server, which is often the single point of failure. So even if it doesn't add more security than signal, it adds resilience. And this is not Tor in the way that its not a proxy, its a framework to build secure peer to peer applications.
