My apologies for that misinformation. While a federated chat system is a
network of servers for people being social,  I should not tie them in the
same crappile as Social Networks where my logins and engagement are
measured and sold.

Open source is good, but it is still yet another distraction that I have to
learn
a) which tool I need to add as a screen to watch things
b) how to shut up from pinging me with 'blah mentioned you!', etc.
c) avoid spending hours looking at it as something to do versus work.
