Briar is a messaging app designed to be used by groups of people to allow for secure and censorship resistant communications.

This technically isn't self hosted in the strictest sense but I think it is still relevant.

Yeah.. I'm a bit surprised by the downvotes also. I just shared my experience without saying anything bad about any apps. Anybody is free try any tool they want until they find the one that fits their need. Thanks for the support ๐Ÿค
