My wife’s an #epidemiologist, so you’ll get some #COVID talk too.

@wildbus8979 @Bahnd Yeah, XMPP checks all the boxes. That said, I don’t know how well encrypted group chats (MUC) work with various clients.
Also, while message contents are encrypted, metadata is not. Self-hosting ameliorates that, but if your “self-hosting” involves a VPS or whatever hosted by a giant corporation, then that’s something to be aware of.
@semperverus @possiblylinux127 No, this other person has a working ‘e’ key on their keyboard.
