Commands in chat include but are not limited to:
/exit - exit the chat
/names - Lists usernames that are currently connected
/theme - Choose a theme - there are several
/msg - Send a private message
/reply - reply to a private message
/whois - View more info about a username currently connected
It's cool and works well.
In a way it's very accessible because it's via SSH, but it's not as simple to use as something like Signal.
Custom options are nice, you can:
Create a whitelist of pub keys to limit connections, have a private chatroom
Create a custom motd that prints when someone connects
Have people moderate or administrate
Careful what you say when you connect to a server as it may or may not be logged!
