Dino, open-source chat client

Dino is a cool open source encrypted chat client for your desktop.

From their website:

Dino is a modern open-source chat client for the desktop. It focuses on providing a clean and reliable Jabber/XMPP experience while having your privacy in mind.

Encryption. Stay private.

Dino is secure by default: Your chats never leave your computer unencrypted. Once you enabled end-to-end encryption via OMEMO or OpenPGP, only you and your chat partners can read your messages, but not your server administrator or anyone else.

If you want to increase your privacy, Dino allows you to disable read and typing notifications – globally or only for specific contacts.

Decentralization. Powered by the people.

Dino is built on the XMPP protocol, an internet standard for decentralized communication – the instant messaging pendant to email.

Decentralization means you don't have to rely on a single provider or company, instead you can use a federated world-wide infrastructure. You can even host your own server!

Give it a try, it is open source and free to use.
