    did he not try stoat? he just put a bunch of question marks there.

    I’d have thought if that was the case it’d be left out of the rankings.

      I did. It isn’t a viable selfhosted alternative atm unless you want to do actual dev work

      • If we’re referring to the article in the link, being self-hosted didn’t seem to be a hard requirement, merely that the app is a potential alternative.

          You’re correct. I think a lot of folks are looking for something decentralized/self-hostable to avoid the lock-in disaster that Discord has created, at least, I am. And I have found a dearth of alternatives! Good article, though.

      • So, if it was like Signal and didn’t let you self host at all it would have ranked on this list?
