-## Convos
-
-[Convos](https://convos.chat/) is an always-online web client for IRC.
-It has a few features that made it attractive to me as a self-hosted
-option:
-
--   Extremely simple Docker Compose installation method.
--   Runs in the background and monitors chats even while you're not
-    logged in.
--   Neatly organized sidebar for conversation and client settings.
--   Ability to connect to different hosts and create profiles for hosts.
--   By default, registration is closed to the public. You can enable
-    public registration on the Settings page or generate invitation
-    links on the Users page.
--   Customization of the client theme, organization name and URL, admin
-    email, and video service.
-
-## Docker Installation
-
-To install Convos, simply create a directory and a
-`docker-compose.yml` file:
-
-```sh
-mkdir ~/convos && cd ~/convos
-nano docker-compose.yml
-```
-
-With the `docker-compose.yml` file open, paste the
-configuration below into the file. You can customize the host port to be
-something unique, such as `21897:3000`. You can also change
-the `data` folder to be a docker volume instead, if you
-prefer.
-
-```config
-version: '3'
-
-services:
-  convos:
-    image: 'convos/convos:stable'
-    ports:
-      - '3000:3000'
-    volumes:
-      - './data:/data'
-    environment:
-      - CONVOS_REVERSE_PROXY=1
-    restart: always
-```
-
-Save the `docker-compose.yml` file and bring the container
-up:
-
-```sh
-sudo docker-compose up -d
-```
-
-At this point, Convos is available at `<server_ip>:3000` but
-not available to the public.
-
-## Nginx Reverse Proxy
-
-If you're using Nginx, you can create a configuration file for the
-convos application. Start by opening the file:
-
-```sh
-nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/convos
-```
-
-Within the nginx configuration file, paste the following content and be
-sure to update `convos.example.com` to match your domain and
-`127.0.0.1:3000` to match the port you opened in the
-`docker-compose.yml` file.
-
-```config
-# Host and port where convos is running
-upstream convos_upstream { server 127.0.0.1:3000; }
-
-server {
-    if ($host ~ ^[^.]+\.example\.com$) {
-        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
-    }
-
-    listen [::]:80;
-    listen 80;
-    server_name convos.example.com;
-    return 404;
-}
-
-server {
-    listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
-    listen 443 ssl http2;
-    server_name convos.example.com;
-    access_log  /var/log/nginx/convos.access.log;
-    error_log   /var/log/nginx/convos.error.log;
-
-    location / {
-        proxy_pass http://convos_upstream;
-        proxy_http_version 1.1;
-        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
-        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
-        client_max_body_size 0;
-        proxy_set_header Host $host;
-        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
-        proxy_set_header X-Request-Base "$scheme://$host/";
-    }
-
-    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
-    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
-    include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
-    ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;
-}
-```
-
-Once the file is saved, link it to the `sites-enabled`
-directory and restart Nginx.
-
-```sh
-sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/convos /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/convos
-sudo systemctl restart nginx.service
-```
-

-## Registering a Nickname
-
-Hop into the server channel so that you can message NickServ. In the
-case of Convos, the default sever is libera.chat. Simply click the
-`libera` conversation at the top of the sidebar to open it.
-Once the chat is open, you can claim a nickname by typing:
-
-```txt
-/nick <nick>
-```
-
-If the nickname is available, and you'd like to register the nickname
-to yourself, you'll need to type another command:
-
-```txt
-/msg NickServ REGISTER 
-<password> <email>
-```
-
-On libera.chat, the server will send a confirmation email with a command
-that you must message in IRC to verify registration of the nickname:
-
-```txt
-/msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER <nick> <verification_code>
-```
-
-Once entered, the server should confirm registration of the nickname to
-the supplied email with the password specified.
