I have been trying to figure out a way that my son can have a messaging account, that doesn’t track him and that we can limit who he has access to and who has access to him.

What are you thoughts on matrix for kids?

Are there any features available for that sort of control? I really only want him to be able to contact his family (and also indoctrinate him into matrix and open source young 😉)

    For what it’s worth, I had a few great chats - while remoting - with my oldest kid upstairs. I’ve given him an old Eeepc 701, with just an ssh connection to a cli-only matrix client ; worked well, but I’ll easily admit it was a bit limited (which, in my very specific use-case, was actually a feature)
