    General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score

    From the README

    A Matrix client focusing primarily on simple, elegant and secure interface. The main goal is to have an instant messaging application that is easy on people and has a modern touch.

    The web app is available at app.cinny.in and gets updated on each new release. The dev branch is continuously deployed at dev.cinny.in but keep in mind that it could have things broken.

    You can also download our desktop app from the cinny-desktop repository.

    To host Cinny on your own, simply download the tarball from GitHub releases, and serve the files from dist/ using your preferred webserver. Alternatively, you can just pull the docker image from DockerHub or GitHub Container Registry.
