there are many solutions, but they should stay hard to find
oh I absolutely know some people, but you're going to have to be lenient on your definition of women.
There's no such thing as an iMac laptop and you don't say which iMac this even is...
authentication is also stuck behind their subscription. for random customers to be able to use your servers, you also have to let everyone else on the internet use it.

also requires a TURN server (not provided, no good free ones exist, no easy interface to configure your own) if you are behind CG or symmetric NAT like many people in the world.
you can't because it's explicitly against the whole point of having endless choices. when everyone works on something different, the quality spreads out to where it's mostly just mediocre stuff across the board.
hardware compatibility is also a huge problem. for everyone that says "it works fine for me" there are a thousand others for whom it does not.
It's also an attack on legitimate services that get inundated with spam/bots/abuse/etc. and one of many reasons why they're not a widespread thing to begin with.
There are a good number of resources for what you want but I don't want to name names because they should stay hard to find on purpose IMO.
There's also many other e2ee chat apps that don't require a phone number such as SimpleX, Briar, Tox, Session etc.
They started with "it's not open season on women", but then kept adding comments like:
