  3. I'd like to switch over to another Matrix homeserver from Matrix.org because of their new policy of scanning messages due to the Online "Safety" Act, but seems like I can't find any instance where I can successfully register (they either throw Internal Server Error, closed registrations, or generate invalid email verification link), or at least among those which have a Privacy Policy and seem trustworthy (yes, the majority of homeservers don't even have a Privacy Policy lol). I already looked at around 80-100 homeservers, inluding Unredacted, NitroChat, Bladerunn.in, Discuss.online, Thisisjoes.site and others with no luck.
    Do you know any good homeservers which have a (reasonable) Privacy Policy and accept registrations? Would love to see some recommendations
