So I’m using a lot the option to chat myself in apps like WhatsApp or Telegram. But I don’t wanna put my trust in them.

I tried about using NextCloud (I have an instance) Talk, but I’m not satisfied: the app won’t load if I have no internet connection.

What I am actually looking for:

  • something with cross client sync that sync is ideally on my server
  • simple to use like sending message to self but with good search options, maybe even tagging
  • ability to send images, files etc
  • caches offline on clients

thanks.

P.S. wasn’t really sure what tag to use here. Help seems like I’d use when I have an issue with an existing project. but I’m looking for a new one so I used this.

thanks!

    Check out xmpp. Wouldn’t know of anything remotely as useful as tgram. If it’s just about messaging yourself, you could also continue using tgram and doing your own encryption with your own bot for sensible data.

      my own encryption seems like too much work.

      and also eventually the bot will send me the deciphered content, so TG can technically see it.
