hosted my own XMPP account

https://chat.ghodawalaaman.duckdns.org/

Hello,

I have hosted my own XMPP account and it's really fun, hosting an XMPP server is way easier than hosting an XMPP server which is not a good experience. I also find a lot of public servers of my interest, I guess I will be leaving IRC in favour of XMPP server :)

What does exactly mean hosting your own account?

I mean, you still need to rely on some sort of server somewhere right? Then there's this sentence: hosting an XMPP server is way easier than hosting an XMPP server, which is not clear to me, though I guess it's some sort of type and you meant at the beginning hosting an XMPP account, right?

If there's a server involved, then the messages are getting stored in it, until all devices with clients have synced right?

My guess is OP meant "easier than hosting an IRC server".

Ohh, most probably the OP actually means they're hosting a XMPP server after all. Cool !

I thought IRC would be quite simple

which is not a good experience

This made me think of Matrix. I don't want to hate on it, it's just annoyingly slow, even though users seem to like it for some reason.

Read the whole thing. OP says.

I read the whole thing, but my brain decided it should replace IRC with XMPP while reading, so it made less sense. xD
