       Hi fedi, how do MUCs in XMPP work? Are they like IRC channels which are public and anyone can join? Can I like for example make a private group for me and others in a public XMPP server? Or the admins are the only one who can make the MUC rooms?#xmpp (Not sure if I should put this tag)

       @rasolock depends on the server. you can make a MUC private if you want or leave it public. The room will belong to a specific MUC server though. You can also set whether individual members have their real JIDs exposed or if they are just seen as users in the room. There's porivschy and encryotioin implications to both; you can't do group OMEMO in anonymous mode for example.
