slrpnk.net already has its own XMPP chat option where one’s Lemmy username (e.g. user@slrpnk.net) is one’s XMPP address, and I imagine that other instances could do something similar if they wanted. XMPP is federated, so it doesn’t require any Lemmy-side coding for the federation aspect. For instance-wide chat (visible to all users of the instance), an implementation in XMPP would probably be easier as well, perhaps using some form of the group chat functionality. What does your proposal offer that cannot be done using XMPP?

Though I hear Mullvad has its own Firefox fork now

Mullvad Browser? It’s basically Tor Browser without the Tor, meant to be used with a VPN instead. It has integration with Mullvad VPN by default, but that add-on can be removed, and the browser doesn’t need Mullvad VPN in order to function. Since the browser is based on Firefox, someone might want to fund Firefox development by using it with Mozilla VPN instead.

After playing with it, it seems that it’s only possible to embed images, not .md files or other text.
