I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

    I self host one for my family’s usage. I setup quite a few bridges which was great. I found I actually enjoyed using Discord, since I have to use their awful app at all. But I quickly discovered a downside. Discord is very noisy, already known, but the sheer amount of memes getting posted in the various servers and channels, was solely responsible for an exorbitant amount of disk usage on the server I setup. You can set it up to not keep things for so long, but that was not desired for our family chats. So I ended up just disconnecting the bridge since it was either have that or have some retention policies in affect server wide. Just a word of system admin caution for anyone that decides to do this.
