So I’m using a lot the option to chat myself in apps like WhatsApp or Telegram. But I don’t wanna put my trust in them.

I tried about using NextCloud (I have an instance) Talk, but I’m not satisfied: the app won’t load if I have no internet connection.

What I am actually looking for:

  • something with cross client sync that sync is ideally on my server
  • simple to use like sending message to self but with good search options, maybe even tagging
  • ability to send images, files etc
  • caches offline on clients

thanks.

P.S. wasn’t really sure what tag to use here. Help seems like I’d use when I have an issue with an existing project. but I’m looking for a new one so I used this.

thanks!

    well search is not that good, it can only find exact word matches for any of the words, but otherwise yeah. though I think telegram isn’t much better at this either

      Search is definitely lacking sadly. Unsure if there’s even solid plans to make it much better either.

      I don’t do a lot of message searching so luckily for me, it’s not something that bothers me too much.
