I manage all these services myself, without depending on third-parties.
Private Messaging
SimpleX doesn’t ask for any personal information to sign up. It protects your messages and metadata: who you talk with and when. It hides your IP by default and is secure against quantum computers. You can have multiple identities and chat in groups or one on one. It’s available on Mac, Windows, Linux, Android and iPhone.
To use my server, just enter into the app, and go to Settings > Network & servers > Your servers > Add server. From there, scan these QR codes:
Otherwise, you can add the servers manually:

- xftp://JITGChIGeSD-MuhfjNFtO8CTewfIvXcJQA86KPuIjnk=@xftp.nicks-lab.com:5224
Anonymous Routing
The Tor network enables anonymous navigation online, protecting the privacy of the users by encrypting their traffic. Nick’s lab supports the Tor network by hosting a Tor relay, a server that routes traffic anonymously.
