title: using xmpp
subtitle: it's like email but it's not

if you don't know already, xmpp is an instant messaging protocol that let's you talk to people on the internet, even if they're using a different server than you.
to claim your account, you can run `/var/scripts/xmpp-register`, type in a password and you're set!
```shell
giovanni@southlondon:/var/scripts$ /var/scripts/xmpp-register
Creating account for giovanni
This script will create an XMPP account for you on southlondon.cc
Enter a password:
User giovanni@southlondon.cc successfully registered
```
now, you can use that xmpp address to log in using your favourite xmpp client. if you don't have a favourite already, check out [gajim](https://gajim.org/) for windows/linux or [conversations](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.siacs.conversations/) on android.
our server is [mostly compliant](https://compliance.conversations.im/server/southlondon.cc/) with the standards, so hopefully everything will work fine
