I use a local and private Dendrite (Matrix) server to exchange strings between computers through an encrypted chat to myself.

  Signal also has a "note to self" feature but as this is a webpage it is undoubtedly superior to both. No installation, instant access, have multiple users and keys per browser(profile). Easily generate one off accounts. This is a gloriously good idea. So long as it works...

  at this point why not just ssh to a host and use vim? i mean, you might have better client os support than a matrix client in most cases :) and if you are running a private matrix node you already have sshd to solve all the constant annoyances and upgrades

    It could also work but SSH connections time out while I can leave Element running on the background. I’m also not aware of those constant annoyances and upgrades.

      Mosh might help with that

  why not just use https://chitchatter.im/ https://chitchatter.im/ ? matrix is quite intensive for a single user and not very private by default.

    How private the chat is is defined by E2E client encryption. Dendrite + Postgres uses ~320MB of my home server memory with negligible CPU and that’s while joined to a few federated rooms.
