You should try snikket. It can run on a 1$/month VPS and gives you and friends/family a really easy to run xmpp server. Easy for not so technical people.

Hell no lol, I'd use an actual modern service like Element.

I find it harder to use. My account has several spammer chats that I can't close for some reason etc...

You can just go into your account settings and deactivate

Deactivate the account, and there's a checkmark to delete all past messages

I don't want to deactivate my account

Uh alright, you asked how to lol.

No I meant that there were conversations that spammers started, that I can't delete for some reason. So I want my account to stay, but delete those garbage convos
