I haven’t hosted my own matrix server yet. is it safe to join an instance? I don’t really know how private that would be. the question is when I signup/login would I be giving out my IP? is the metadata private? sorry I’m just a bit paranoid

    Jejejejejeje.

    BTW, LIME is specific from Linphone though.

    https://wiki.linphone.org/xwiki/wiki/public/view/Lib/Features/LIME/

    I make the comparison because they don’t add modifications to the protocol itself. These closed networks use to be compatible with any SIP public infraestructure in comparison what people do with XMPP which even being connected, there could be a lot of incompatible things.

    I consider SIP and SIMPLE simplicity a feature in comparison with other protocols.

    BTW, SIP can be used P2P as well as SIMPLE. If I remember use to be mostly that with STUN help and a SIP Proxy Server for registering users and notifications.
