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 for not really any reason besides their ID system.

    1. You’re allowed multiple profiles, so like a work profile, business profile, anonymous profile etc.
    2. You can only connect with an invitation. This is a huge preventative spam measure. You can give anyone specific a 1-time invitation to chat with you. Or you can use an invitation that can be voided at any time without losing any of your connections. So add it to a website, and then at some point if it gets out there, you can kill it and spin up a new one. You have no phone number or any other identifier. Just invitations.

    It’s a very novel approach I’ve not seen elsewhere.

      and you don’t need to have email or phone number to register. it really just plug and play and i think this really gonna help boost adoption
