About XMPP

XMPP is an open, encrypted messaging protocol that's been around since 1999. It's the foundation of Jabber — like WhatsApp, but decentralized and private.

XMPP is free for normal use with 100GB/week of data transfer. Supporters get 1TB/week. Natalie and Darren have unlimited operator access because they run the VPS.
