This chat plugin relies onthe XMPP protocol (also known as Jabber).It is therefore possible to connect to the chats using [XMPP client software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMPP#Clients).Thiscan be useful for example to facilitate moderation operations.
The features described onthis page must be enabled and configured by your Peertube instance's administrators. You may therefore not have access to them.
