I’m looking for something like Snikket or Prosody, but kids-oriented. I DON’T want my <10 daughter using Meta Messenger Kids! I’ll tell my friends to setup for their kids, too. I’d have no access to anything, so it’s secure (mom and dad not snooping per se), but the downside is minimal parental controls. Though, no one to really add either.

I’ll host or pay for it, IDC. It doesn’t seem like there is much out there either.

JusTalk seemed nice when I found out but apparently China owned and so no more secure. I/we need better options!

    Sure, parental controls. Big whoop. But they’re continuously building shadow profiles and selling everyone’s data. So, while it keeps kids to their own circle, FB of taking note of that, and building up more about extended friends and family circles.

      I don’t know what you think I wrote, but it’s pretty clear that you misunderstood somehow.

      Good luck.

        Sorry, explaining that I definitely don’t want FB services of any kind.

        I just want private and secure, not data harvesting. The stickers or kid friendly filters for the camera is nice. It doesn’t have to be crazy kid oriented, just simple enough to get them what they want while giving me peace of mind.
