And it was hard to explain to friends/family how to set it up.

That’s why I gave up on self hosting it. I can sit here and mess around with recovery keys and verification and whatever else, but if the people that would use it with me can’t just sign up and chat, then I’ve got no one to talk to. They don’t care much about privacy, which I’m finding is most people.

I use the libredirect extension so that when I end up with a reddit result in searches it redirects. But yeah most of the time it doesn’t work now.
