diasp.in/durare.org provides instant messaging service open for everyone seeking privacy for their day to day communication needs. We provide verifiable privacy through Free Software XMPP apps like Monocles Chat, Monal or Dino. Users of our service can talk to users of any XMPP service like prav.app, quicksy.im or poddery.com.
This XMPP service is powered by Prosody, which is Free Software. You can run it on your own.
Own your data
Your data is yours. Make sure you enable end to end encryption for all your chats (Some clients like Monocles Chat do this by default, but for other clients you may need to do this manually).
Donate
Consider making a donation to keep the service running.
We rely on Hetzner to host our virtual servers. Hetzner is based in Germany and our servers are hosted in their Helsinki data center in Finland. You can directly credit our hosting account which will be used to pay invoices. This has the lowest payment fees and currency conversion rate, and is the recommended way.

This project originally began as diasp.in, a Diaspora pod hosted in India. We later added XMPP and Matrix services. Hamara Linux, our hosting sponsor, could not continue offering their data center in India for long and we had to mode hosting outside India. Later, we had to shut down matrix and diaspora due to lack of volunteers. Recently, new volunteers joined the team to continue the XMPP service. New accounts will be created on durare.org domain as diasp.in accounts are tied to diaspora accounts and it was not easy to migrate existing users to an XMPP only setup.
