"I prefer open standard chat, not walled gardens, (TXTS, VM, pics, files, syncs devices etc.) You probably use it in some apps without knowing it. If you don't want to create an account, I can give you my tel# there, but it won't be end-to-end encrypted.
I would love it if you would get a public server account: https://xmpp.link/#user@example.com, or here is an invitation to my server [link]. I will prob have it for a year or two."
