There seem to be plentiful options for text chat servers, so I'm curious for those that self-host their own, what their preferences & experiences have been with them.

Also those mentioned in the title were just a few examples, if you run something else, e.g. Revolt or Mattermost or something else less popular, would be interested in reading about it!

XMPP with prosody is good once you've figured out the modules you need.

Unfortunately, I had to quit a few years back as there was no reliable iOS client. Long story short: notifications were never working as expected on that plateform.

Matrix.org is overkill for my needs, but at least notifications work accross the board 👍

Snikket.org is an xmmp server that bundles common extensions

And has very well working notifications support on iOS with the included app.
