IM thoughts 

@SilviaFox oh yeah, I'm just wanting to make my own chat room for people to come talk in, but I don't like discord for those

IM thoughts 

I'm either going to use IRC, telegram, XMPP, or make a forum

* I don't want multiple channel chat, because that's a forum but worse
* IRC is good because people don't need accounts to connect, and can just switch to a different username whenever, but is bad because it's overwhelming to beginners
* telegram has the best client, imo, but people don't like it and I don't like the security implications of connecting your number
* xmpp is nice but basically unknown so no-one would join

@Felthry yeah it woould be a lot of work for like... the 10 people who would join a group chat with me

@puppy@chitter.xyz it does, I think some are beginning to be added

@puppy@chitter.xyz well it's just followers only + whoever you're mentioning

@puppy@chitter.xyz follower only toots also notify anyone who's atted

so if you at anyone ever, they can always see the toot they were atted in (but not anything else)

@catoutofbed@octodon.social ah right, I'd have to like... have a fake account logged in somewhere, grabbing all the data from the end and sending it unsecured over irc, which people might not be ok with
