The telegram app has a very nice interface, but I want to use a self hosted xmpp chat server.

Is there maybe a fork of telegram that makes it work with a self hosted xmpp server? I would imagine that this is possible.

If not, is there anything that at least gets close to how nice telegram UI is?

The "app", as you call it, only subscribes to the services provided. Whether you know it (apparently not), any features you described are on the server side (as to your post title). You are asking about the server, though you seem to not know it. Why else would you post in "self-HOSTED". Applications aren't hosted.

Wow.

And?

None of the features I described (the interface) are on the server (the interface).

If you think otherwise, you'll have to prove it to be taken seriously :)

You are asking about the server

I am not. Again, please refer to the first three words in the body of post. In general, I urge you to read posts before you respond to them.

it's in regards to a self-hosted xmpp server.

If you do not have an argument to make or anything of value to add, please stop replying to my comments or I will ignore them going forward.

Go for it. I'd ask you to stop asking questions which are easily found elsewhere. Good luck!
