 "All peers are servers" is a downside for now imo. My phone is oflline 90% of the time, on purpose, and is the worst server-solution. Until there's something I can very easily run myself or a service that I can very easily verify, Keet cannot be a main comms tool fro me. 
What did sell me on it is the crazy fast huge file sharing and high quality video streams.

 Add room on home computer, leave room open. An update soon is likely to include blind forwarding.

 I just checked that! 
That's actually very exciting. Thank you sir 🙏. 
Can't wait for it to be FOSS too.

 Leaving a room open doesn't work for me.

 Are you sure you're giving pics time to propagate? Files & videos probably still have to be manually downloaded, but I just tested it & it works for pictures & text. I guess it's also possible some blind forwarding is already happening & the number of peers you have matters...? But I did this in a room with only my own devices. Uploaded pic from phone, it showed up on laptop, closed keet on phone opened on second phone and after a second the pic was available on second phone.
