Hello everyone! Are there any benefits of hosting your own XMPP server, considering I always use end-to-end encryption in all of my chats?

    Absolutely. The only real privacy issue you face using a public XMPP server is that you trust all of your metadata (everything inferred and included with the message besides actual text content) to the server administrator. If all of your XMPP messages are moving through your server, you are in control of your metadata.
