Registration - clearnet
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!
You can also navigate to xmpp.nixnet.xyz/register/ to register using the web UI as well as change your password and unregister your account.
Registration - Tor
If you want to use my XMPP server over Tor, make sure you first start/enable the Tor service:
$ sudo systemtl start tor.service
$ sudo systemtl enable tor.service
After that, there are a few settings you'll have to change depending on your client. I use Gajim on Linux so I'll explain how to do it with that.

Clients
If you're not sure what client to use, I recommend Conversations for Android, Kaidan for Ubuntu Touch, ChatSecure or Monal IM for iOS/macOS (I haven't tested them but I have heard good things), and Gajim for Linux and Windows.
Personally, I use Conversations and Gajim 😉
