How to build an AI chatbot with Openfire and OpenAI Chat Completion
ConverseJS is a popular Javascript XMPP client that implements a full range of XMPP extensions. Also available as a plugin for openfire — inverse-openfire-plugin and can be installed on openfire with a few clicks.
- Converse.js 10.1.2

An actually private messaging self hosted server
I agree. IMHO the best variant is then to use something that is truely free. Like XMPP. There are a lot of servers and many clients to chose from and I can strongly recommend converse.js as a web client. It supports different ways of end to end encryption but I would recommend OMEMO which is basically the same encryption idea that you find in Signal.

Xmpp Bot with its own address.
Hello, I recently started exploring xmpp, with snikket app and conversejs.org
-
Matrix was worth the effort to self host.
It is Converse.js (https://conversejs.org/) packaged into a one-click install for openfire (from the web admin). So, one-click install for an xmpp web client.

Ask HN: What is your recommended stack for real time chat?
My choice, because it's the stack I know very well, would be Prosody ( https://prosody.im/ - I'm one of the devs) and a web client such as Converse.js ( https://conversejs.org/ ). XMPP is highly extensible, Prosody is highly modular, which make them a good foundation for building on top of.
That said, the right stack is generally the one that matches your requirements, and (if this isn't primarily a learning exercise) whatever you're most familiar with. The hardest part of building a Discord or Slack-like in 2022 is actually not the technical stuff. There are many comprehensive open-source products already out there that compete with these companies, such as Mattermost, RocketChat and Element.

No white list registering with conversejs.org
Tried to register with conversejs.org today and got an error "your IP is not whitelisted".
- Best open source protocol to fork?

NEEE HELP!
Maybe you are remembering this bug from some months ago? It appeared exactly as if this was (accidentally) uploading keys to the user's XMPP server (not Converse.js's server) and publishing them.

This Year in Matrix
Nheko has been around for a number of years. Never used it myself though.

Matrix was worth the effort to self host.
Matrix clients hit different than pretty much any other chat client I've use before. Theres multiple clients I've found like nheko, moments, element that are a pleasure to look at and smooth as hell. Even better you can have users use web services like Element Web to sign-up and chat. Its sick.

What flatpaks are "official" (i.e., directly from the application's developer)?
The Nheko flatpak is official. Just compare the source to the nightlies we build and upload to our nightly repo.

GTK4 Matrix Client
Like almost every client out there it has no support for e2ee. I was happy to find https://nheko-reborn.github.io (I'm a KDE user so Qt apps are preferred).
- Mozilla Thunderbird Beta now supports Matrix chat

weed rule
There's also FluffyChat or Nheko if Element is too heavy.

Using Files with Browsers, in Reality
I probably wouldn't have guessed that `e.dataTransfer.items` gets cleared at the first await (since I'm not a proficient web developer), but I would've been extremely wary of this code in general. Additionally (not tied to async-await but race conditions in general), is `item.getAsFileSystemHandle()` a TOCTTOU vulnerability where the type of an item can change between folders and files and symlinks etc., while this code is running?
Rust's & vs. &mut system largely eliminates shared state hazards in both threading and asynchronity (&mut is exclusive/unaliased and can't be mutated by other threads or event loop jobs, and & is difficult and unidiomatic to mutate), though it doesn't solve async cancellation errors (https://carllerche.com/2021/06/17/six-ways-to-make-async-rus..., discussed at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27542504), or filesystem TOCTTOU (https://blog.rust-lang.org/2022/01/20/cve-2022-21658.html as well as user code).
Qt event loop reentrancy is fun(tm) as well. It looks like a blocking call, but spawns a nested event loop which can do anything (but rarely enough to lull you into a false sense of complacency), resulting in segfaults like https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/issues/656 (workaround at https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/commit/570d00b000bd558..., I didn't look into it). And Qt lacks "easy" await syntax and a framework based on calling red functions (though I didn't look into C++20 coroutines yet, perhaps https://www.qt.io/blog/asynchronous-apis-in-qt-6 or https://github.com/mhogomchungu/tasks or https://blog.blackquill.cc/asynchronous-qtquick-uis-and-thei...?).
