You can choose any chatmail server just like when you sign up for lemmy you can choose which instance you’re gonna have your account on. And you can also run your own instance and allow people to sign up on there.
I'm not going to lie, "chatmail" made me snort 😄
Using mail protocols for chat always seemed like a natural, pragmatic solution to a problem that people have been overthinking for decades.
Back when I tried Delta first, it was a bit janky (can it really be 10+ years ago?), so I'm glad they've smoothed out the kinks and getting people onboard more easily.
