I've been doing some cleanup of my various chat networks, bringing my #matrix account back to a self-hosted instance, and tuning my #xmpp server. And while I'm at taking #deltachat for a more serious run. Maybe it'll be less friction for some.
Likely a result of recent Slack shenanigans, the pressure on the matrix.org server is a good reminder of why I should just run my own #matrix instance. It also just adds to my appreciation of how much nicer it is to run and use #xmpp.
