A small brief about your project
Prav is a messaging service which can be used to exchange messages, audio/video calls, files, images and videos over the Internet. Inspired by the Quicksy app, Prav provides the convenience of registering with a phone number. It is federated with other XMPP providers, while at the same time easy to use.
One FOSS maintainer lesson for your younger self
Help run community-run services instead of self-hosting a lot of services on your own.
Why do you do it? Why do you bother maintaining a FOSS project?
I think Prav project is doing what no other project is doing - mass adoption of a federated XMPP service with convenient onboarding process. I also feel ownership and responsibility towards the project. Mass adoption of messaging services is important because messaging services are based on network effects. Otherwise, I would myself need to use proprietary services for chatting.
