Tips for running a website service

-If you want to host a long-term website using OnionShare (meaning not something to quickly show someone something), it's recommended you do it on a separate, dedicated computer always powered on and connected to the Internet, and not on the one you use on a regular basis.

Save the tab (see :ref:`save_tabs`) so you can resume the website with the same address if you close OnionShare and re-open it later.
If your website is intended for the public, you should run it as a public service (see :ref:`turn_off_private_key`).

If you need to already be using an encrypted messaging app, what's the point of an OnionShare chat room to begin with? It leaves less traces.
-If you for example send a message to a Signal group, a copy of your message ends up on each device (the devices, and computers if they set up Signal Desktop) of each member of the group. Even if disappearing messages is turned on, it's hard to confirm all copies of the messages are actually deleted from all devices, and from any other places (like notifications databases) they may have been saved to.

Even if disappearing messages is turned on, it's hard to confirm all copies of the messages are actually deleted from all devices, and from any other places (like notifications databases) they may have been saved to.
OnionShare chat rooms don't store any messages anywhere, so the problem is reduced to a minimum.
OnionShare chat rooms can also be useful for people wanting to chat anonymously and securely with someone without needing to create any accounts.
