I’m looking for something like Snikket or Prosody, but kids-oriented. I DON’T want my <10 daughter using Meta Messenger Kids! I’ll tell my friends to setup for their kids, too. I’d have no access to anything, so it’s secure (mom and dad not snooping per se), but the downside is minimal parental controls. Though, no one to really add either.

I’ll host or pay for it, IDC. It doesn’t seem like there is much out there either.

JusTalk seemed nice when I found out but apparently China owned and so no more secure. I/we need better options!

    My oldest is 10 and he wants to be able to chat with his friends.

    I sure as hell don’t want him on Facebook, yet that’s the most kid tested/mother approved out there.

    I highly doubt my kid will have good luck getting his friends to join my private self-hosted matrix server.

    Maybe one or two friends because their dads are my nerd friends. But that’s about it.
