Simple, secure and private messaging·snikket.org
Snikket is an XMPP-based messaging platform consisting of open-source client apps and a self-hostable server, designed for private communication among small groups such as families, friends, and clubs. It offers end-to-end encrypted text, voice, and video messaging without requiring a phone number, and lets users run their own independent, federated messaging service. The project focuses on privacy, with no ads, no trackers, and no sharing of personal data.
