## Joining group

The current model when the link to join the group is, effectively, an address of one of the admins, is not censorship-resistant, reliable or convenient - the admin can be offline, be removed, etc. So we want to somehow include addresses of multiple super-peers to join the group. Without identity-layer, the addresses are quite large already, and including multiple addresses in one link, while possible, would make the qr code very hard to scan. Practically, without creating identity layer, we can use up to 2-3 super-peer addresses for the group, and increase it later. 2 addresses is likely to be satisfactory, as one of them could be super-peer hosted by SimpleX Chat, and another - by group owners.
