By default, libsodium provides a handful of symmetric encryption algorithms such as XSalsa20Poly1305(Default), XChaCha20Poly1305(Need to use language interoperability skill) and AES256GCM(Hardware accelerated).

This is a question for future users. Do you think there's a need to add Salsa20Poly1305, ChaCha20Poly1305 and ChaCha20IETFPoly1305 in the symmetric encryption algorithms to the application?

I am considering to add AES256GCM(Hardware accelerated) on the server side. However, it's not that doable as there might be certain users can't use hardware accelerated version of AES256GCM
