what do you guys use as messengers? i tried out simplex chat recently and i liked the fact that it doesnt require phone number to register and you can create fake names in the groups youre in to prevent getting tracked by cross referencing your username in different groups. despite all this it was pretty buggy at least in my Kali Linux VM and my friend who was using it on Windows said it was laggy for him too. I'm looking into hosting my own XMPP server
