could you recommend a good xmpp setup? i heard good things about snikket, maybe something else too?
Comment on Question: Is there a Self Hosted Discord like app?

Matrix is an option but it’s slow and breaks all the time. I’m a big fan of XMPP myself but good luck convincing anyone else to make an account 😔

I’m running Prosody and it was easy to set up and the docs are good.

Dont knock matrix for being slow, it updates just as fast as anyone else’s network speed is and it is focused on encryption and security. Given [gestures broadly to everything these days] people moving away from major platforms should really take into account their digital footprint and privacy.

So do you have to have an account on a specific server and then get the client or get the client first? I can’t recall how to do it any longer.

Its pretty similar to Lemmy or anything else in the fediverse, someones full user name includes their home server.
Your admin just needs to have configured the service to except comminication from other servers and not just its internal users.

I’m on dbzer0 and they have one. Does that mean I can just use my dbzer0 account?

That’s fair
