    Somehow missed that part. But what would be the point of a defederated chat then?

      I use mine like old school Trillion. Element is my Discord, Signal, IRC client. One thing open on my desktop to do them all.

      Edit: For instance, Beeper (https://www.beeper.com/) is just a defederated Synapse server with bridges.

        I want to set up XMPP gateways to do the same, but I would still feel comfortable federating since the network isn’t centralized around a single hub. The clients are a lot less weighty too.
