It works out of the box and completely painlessly with The Lounge.
It web based so some might not be a fan, but for mobile use it's pretty great. Just install as PWA on Android or iOS and it's pretty seamless.
I have heard a few people mention using it.
It looks nice. But I assume it's sending messages in clear text? Im using Element a bit (https://element.io/) but it doesn't feel as fun as Lemmy. I guess it can be great for general chatting in real time though.
It's an IRC client, so yes everything is plain text. IRC is a very basic protocol, no encryption or anything other than TLS for your connection to the server.
