Are people here using DeltaChat? Seems like an easier to use alternative to Matrix and more decentralized than Signal (piefed.zip)

I gave it another try last week

It's still in development, it's not a fully fledged replacement for Matrix yet, but I could see it replace Signal at some point.

Indeed I only offered up my experience since you mentioned self-hosting and family.

That makes sense. I think for me DeltaChat could be used both ways: both as a 'people I know' messenger, and both for 'Internet chat room'

Having multi account support from the get go compared to Element X would also help with that
