Client registration is open so all you have to do to start using Jabber/XMPP on NixNet is open your favourite client, enter `nixnet.xyz` as the host, come up with a username, generate a strong password, and enjoy!
# Registration - Tor
If you want to use my XMPP server over Tor, make sure you first start/enable the Tor service:
```bash
$ sudo systemtl start tor.service
```
After that, there are a few settings you'll have to change depending on your client. I use [Gajim](https://gajim.org) on Linux so I'll explain how to do it with that.
*`Add Account -> I want to register for a new account`
If you're not sure what client to use, I recommend [Conversations](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.siacs.conversations/) for Android, [ChatSecure](https://chatsecure.org/) or [Monal IM](https://monal.im/) for iOS/macOS (I haven't tested them but I have heard good things), and [Gajim](https://gajim.org/) for Linux and Windows.
