  Currently, I only have a free account there. I tried Hydroxide first, and I had no problem logging in. I was also able to fetch some emails. I will try hydroxide-push as well later.

  I haven’t heard of Hydroxide before; thank you for highlighting it! Just one question: Does it also require a premium account like the official bridge, or is it also available for free accounts?

  This reminds me of one of my older projects. I wanted to learn more about network communications, so I started working on a simple P2P chat app. It wasn’t anything fancy, but I really enjoyed working on it. One challenge I faced was that, at the time, I didn’t know how to listen for user input while handling network communication simultaneously. So, after I had managed to get multiple TCP sockets working on one thread, I thought, why not open another socket for HTTP communication? That way, I could incorporate a fancy web UI instead of just a CLI interface.

  So, I wrote a simple HTTP server, which, in hindsight, might not have been necessary.
