Hello everyone! Are there any benefits of hosting your own XMPP server, considering I always use end-to-end encryption in all of my chats?

Thank you! But I’m not sure about moving to Matrix, since all of my contacts use XMPP. Also I believe I can communicate with Matrix users via bridge, if I’m correct?
You’re correct, there are Matrix -> XMPP bridges and XMPP -> Matrix bridges
There is a XMPP to Matrix bridge (aria-net.org fork of Bifrost is best), but to be honest the experience isn’t great from the XMPP side.
XMPP has Slidge now, which is arguably the better bridging system than anything Matrix currently has.
If I read the PyPi page correctly, slidge doesn’t seem to do group chats. The website itself calls it experimental.
I’m sure it’s technically superior, but without something as basic as group chat I wouldn’t even consider it comparable.
Group chats are supported in the latest version.
