If checked, anonymous Peertube users won't see the chat. This feature is still experimental. If you enabled it, it is highly recommended to also check "Don't publish chat information". Otherwise, some third party tools could try to open the chat, and have unpredictable behaviours.
By enabling this option, it will be possible to connect to rooms using external XMPP accounts and XMPP clients.<br> <span class="peertube-plugin-livechat-warning"> <b>Warning</b>, enabling this option can request extra server and DNS configuration. </span> Please refer to the documentation: <a href="https://livingston.frama.io/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/admin/advanced/xmpp_clients/" target="_blank"> Enable external XMPP account connections. </a>
