You can try it out with ` ssh username@isle.chat ` Enter a password to use on first join. It features a slack/discord style interface with channels on the left and users on the right. You can create and join your own channels, and upload ascii art to be the channels banner which shows in the top right. Auth is user/pass only for now but plan to add support for uploading your pub key if you want to use that instead.

Code is here if you want to self host or look at screenshots https://github.com/ashfn/islechat If you want to design a banner for your channel there is an editor here https://islechat.github.io/banner.html
