 Pretty easy!  You'll need to download a client app and use your Moonbeam.town credentials to sign in.  Some suggestions for various platforms can be found below.  Fortunately, most modern XMPP clients are smart enough to figure out how to access Moonbeam.town's XMPP server based solely on your XMPP ID, which will be the same as your [[Email]] address, which is //username//@moonbeam.town.
 ==== For Desktop ====
+There are a number of desktop clients -- Psi+, Dino, and Gajim are some examples.  I use Gajim, it's fine, it has a few plugins, and it supports modern OMEMO encryption.  You can get it from https://gajim.org for Windows or your friendly neighborhood software repo for Linux.
+Once you've downloaded it and installed it, make sure you go to Gajim -> Plugins and install the OMEMO plugin to ensure availability of secure communications.
 ==== For Android ====
+The best client available for Android is Conversations.  You can either buy it from the [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.siacs.conversations|Google Play Store]] or you can get it from [[F-droid]] for free.  They're the same app so it doesn't really matter which you go with -- just make sure you're getting the one by Daniel Gultsch.
 ==== For iOS ====
+You bougie bastard.  The program you want is called SiskinIM, from a company called Tigase.  That's all I know -- I don't have an iOS device with which I could run tests.
 ===== What next? =====
+I have Conversations on my phone and so am logged in at wraidd@moonbeam.town -- you can send me a message if you like, though Matrix is preferred.  You can also visit https://search.jabber.network to search all publicly-available multi-user chats out there.  And, of course, if you have friends with XMPP accounts, you can add them and talk to them from your Moonbeam.town account.
