What do you recommend to use while taking into account chat control? I was thinking about self-hosting XMPP. I’d love to hear your advice

    I like simplex a lot on android, it supports e2ee calls which afaik xmpp doesn’t.

    However simplex is still buggy, and sometimes messages don’t get through until the other party restarts the app. And the desktop app seems to be even buggier and has no native Wayland support.

    I’ve used xmpp + otr for many years, it seems to be the most stable solution if calls aren’t a concern.

    There are many clients to choose from, many of which are modern enough to support Wayland and are written in save languages (in the Whonix wiki there’s a nice xmpp client comparison you may be interested in)

    Nowadays omemo seems to be the replacement for OTR, it’s a shame it doesn’t support Socialist Milionares Protocol like OTR did.
