#### Privacy-first email client, organized by sender

I'm John, the founder behind Talanoa. Funny enough, it was never supposed to become a product.

I spend a huge part of my day in email, and I never really liked traditional email clients. So instead of looking for yet another one, I built the inbox I wanted for myself. Then I showed it to a few friends. They loved it, started using it, and eventually pushed me to turn my little personal project into a real product.

Along the way, one idea became obvious: **email is a conversation that forgot it was one.**

A thread between two people is basically a chat: a message, a reply, a reply to the reply. Yet email clients still show repeated quotes, signatures, headers, footers and years of clutter. So I rebuilt Talanoa around a different question: *what if email felt more like a messenger?*

* 💬 **Emails become actual conversations**, clean and chat-like, while keeping everything that makes email, email
* ✅ **Any email can become a todo**, with a next step and a due date
* 📅 **Your calendar** lives alongside your conversations
* ✨ **AI helps you search, summarize and write**, entirely on your computer
* 📥 **Gmail, Outlook, iCloud and any IMAP account** in one inbox
* 🔒 **No cloud sync, no ads.** Your emails stay on your computer.

Try it in your browser first, no signup: <https://talanoa.email/demo>

And if there's one thing your current email client does that you couldn't live without, tell me: john@talanoa.email ❤️

## Enable snaps on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and install Talanoa

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap is available for [Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8](https://www.redhat.com/en/enterprise-linux-8) and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward.

The packages for RHEL 7, RHEL 8, and RHEL 9 are in each distribution’s respective [Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, which is why they’re listed separately below.

The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 9** with the following command:

```
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
```

The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 8** with the following command:

```
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
```

The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 7** with the following command:

```
sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
```

Adding the *optional* and *extras* repositories is also recommended:

```
sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
sudo yum update
```

Snap can now be installed as follows:

```
sudo yum install snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
