Hi, at moment just from the client, though theoretically the servers could support it too, but it's not yet implemented.

A new feature will come to monocles chat: Ephemeral Messages.
Built on XEP-0466, Ephemeral Messages let you send messages that automatically disappear after a set time, giving you predictable message lifetimes and less long-term clutter. This is great for one-time codes, event details, quick confirmations, temporary links, or draft content. It can also offer privacy and security advantages by limiting how long sensitive information is accessible and reducing stored copies of short-lived messages. Stay tuned!

Open source is a civic imperative, not just a tech choice. It hands power back to people — transparency that prevents surveillance and corruption, freedom from corporate gatekeepers, and the ability to fix what’s broken instead of waiting for permission. Societies that embrace open source cut costs, harden security through mass peer review, and ignite waves of local innovation and jobs. It levels the playing field so citizens everywhere can learn, build, and defend their digital rights. Losing open source is losing democratic control of our infrastructure. Defend it.🛡️

The last two weeks and we are still far away from our funding goal. But that doesn’t mean that we give in.
Whatsapp wants to start advertising soon, which will only increase their monopolization and take advantage of you. Don't fall for it anymore, there are better solutions:
XMPP has been around for over twenty years and is used by millions of people. End-to-end encrypted, decentralized, open and fair.
With monocles chat you can communicate privately and securely with your friends, family and colleagues.
