devlug.de is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

Tja, da wird dir vermutlich jede/r etwas anderes empfehlen...
Persönlich ist mir freie Anbieterwahl wichtig. Das ist ein Grund, warum ich den Standard #XMPP nutze, siehe https://imday.de/
Signal ist vermutlich der einfachere Move... persönlich bin ich aber kein Fan davon, wieder bei einem Anbieter festzustecken.
There are IM apps mostly pushed by a few loud enthusiasts on Mastodon, and then there is #XMPP, which is used in the real world.
For example:
• Evacuating people from battlefields in Afghanistan: That’s XMPP.
• Shipping metric fuck tons of cocaine across the globe: That’s XMPP.
Unfortunately spam and abuse - like anywhere on the Internet - can be a problem in public channels on the Jabber/XMPP network.
That's why the next version of #Conversations_im is combining ban and message deletion (moderation) into one step.
Let's hope you won't need that functionality very often.
La situacion en #cyberdelia.com.ar es la siguiente, cortaron la luz, parece que el corte es grande porque Edesur puso un generador para suplir la falta de servicio que desde hace 12 horas nos dejo sin luz. El tema es que eso afecto a los nodos del ISP y todavia no hay servicio de internerd en la zona.
Esperemos que cuando vuelva internerd el ISP recuerde que tenemos IP publica... hasta entonces sera todo incertidumbre.
Si no vuelve solo, tendre que gestionar una visita tevcnica del ISP... asi que en el peor de los casos nos vemos la semana que viene.

I understand that the endless social media debates about which messaging client is best are obnoxious. That’s why we need to finally adopt a common standard so everyone can choose between Cheogram, Conversations, and Yaxim, or Dino and Gajim, without having to convince everyone else to use the same one.
#XMPP Community
The #Chat of the Future Initiative discusses their spring 2026 activities today from 19:00 (UTC+1)!
Activities: XMPP’s strong points, organising online meet-ups and #interoperabilty sessions.
Can we imagine to have #interoperability between #matrix #threema and #xmpp? #messenger
I know it’s possible between matrix and xmpp but I never heard that's possible with threema.
I tag @threemaapp @matrix and @xmpp
XMPP in general and #Conversations_im in particular are used a lot by organizations and individuals that have something to hide. They have absolutely zero interest in appearing on marketing slides or blog posts. But buy #XMPP developers enough Belgian beer at FOSDEM and you'll hear the stories.
Thanks to all organisers, supporters and visitors for the great experience at our XMPP #Realtime Lounge and at the venue overall!
We end the day with this lovely creation from Angela (piscimisty) <3

@ejabberd @movim
#fosdem was cool! I attended a single day, spend it all chatting with cool folks who wanted to know more about #XMPP and its gateways such as https://slidge.im
As the "bridges guy", it was my duty to socialize with our neighbours @matrix and @delta - we have different opinions on which tech is better, but our goals are aligned: long live federated self-hostable chat protocols! No need to FUD each other.
Matridge is already a thing, deltachidge when?
Thanks @ge0rg for the cool LED display.

Folks I finally start to feel better. You still have a chance to meet me at the XMPP realtime lounge (aw1) to discuss about Libervia, SFU based video calls, XMPP forums, ActivityPub gateway, etc.

I'm in Belgium for #FOSDEM and the #XMPP Summit, and ever since I crossed the border on Wednesday, my roaming has been extremely spotty or non-existent. It's amazing how much XMPP instant messaging traffic I can still get through a very slow EDGE connection, whereas the Mastodon API with Tusky doesn't work at all.
