  Just below you’ll find a section about “self hosting (soon)”, though you can already use it with your own XMPP account as a standalone client (no questions asked), like I do, or, optionally, with the server-side components (opensource prosody module).

    Good to see prose moving along.

    I don’t see what you’re describing 🤷 Soon only appears once on the page and not in this context for me.

    I do notice that the product comparison chart lists the same 100 user limit for self-hosted.

      It appears as a tooltip here

      Anyhow, where I intended to draw your intention was on prose.org/downloads

      You can just download the client for your platform (assuming one is available), or use the web one (otherwise), or just build one from the sources I linked (which is what I do), and login with your usual XMPP account. Would you need an account and have to decide which provider to register with, this would come handy: providers.xmpp.net

      In this set-up, prose.org isn’t hosting your account and will of course let you interact with thousands of users or more, like any other XMPP client.
