For people running a family chat in their #selfhosted #homelab: What is the system with the best mobile experience (both Android and iOS)? I've been using mattermost, but my family is not super excited about it. I'm thinking of running something else instead, but I don't want to test every single platform availablecc @selfhosted @selfhostedchat

What are their complaints about Mattermost? That might help.

@breakingcups @selfhosted honestly? That is not WhatsApp so I’m trying to find some way to appeal to them

If selfhosting the family chat is not a goal in itself and it's about privacy or being independent from big tech, just take the loss and go to Signal. Much smoother experience than any self-hosted messenger can provide for now.

Many governments want to decrypt chats. You better learn how to selfhost.
