@Jenetrix well, #XMPP just works...

Try @monocles / #MonoclesChat and @gajim / #Gajim.

They just work and do proper #E2EE!

Otherwise consider #IRC for bublic chats and #SelfHosted #Zulip for organization chats...

@kkarhan @Jenetrix @monocles @gajim I literally had unfixable encryption issues with XMPP, so it "just working" is a bit of a stretch, unless they somehow miraculously fixed multi-device and group encryption in the last 3 years.
Had to fully disable encryption, because nothing was getting through.

@csepp @Jenetrix weird...

Sadly without any data or error reports neither @monocles nor @gajim can actually diagnose or fix the issue...

To me that sounds like someone MITM'ing comms....
