Mostly using #Phosh on a #LibreM5 running #Mobian #trixie lately but also a #PinePhone running #Mobian #bookworm (with a trixie era kernel).

About 95% or more using the #Dino #XMPP client.

Mostly with WiFi but occasionally cellular data. Never with cellular voice calls or text.

Had tried Chats ages ago but the #OMEMO support was unreliable and there was no offline support at all. Lack off offline support was a total deal breaker for me.

Love phosh a lot, many thanks!

Designing top-down from the UI/UX is a good idea. It is, however, probably not a USP of Delta Chat. TTBOMK, at least #Conversations, #Dino and #Kaidan, have been developed with the same mindset.

But they do not share a common framework like Delta Chat. Everyone uses their own protocol implementation (in Java, Vala/C, and C++, repectively), which results in more work and potentially more bugs.

Im Blog-Beitrag vom Debian XMPP Team bekommt ihr dazu einige Informationen.

Was ist XMPP? 🤔

XMPP ist ein Internetstandard für Instant Messaging - ein Protokoll zum chatten und vieles mehr! ☝️

Hier 👇 geht es zum Beitrag:

Meine persönlichen Highlights sind:

💫 Dino, upgraded from 0.4.2 to 0.5.0
💫 Gajim, upgraded from 1.7.3 to 2.1.1
💫 Profanity, upgraded from 0.13.1 to 0.15.0
💫 Prosŏdy, from 0.12.3 to 13.0.1

Vielen Dank an das Debian XMPP Team und die XMPP Projekte! 🙏 🙏 🙏

Viel Spaß beim chatten.

#XMPP enthusiasts out there: what would you say the ultimate Achilles heel of the XMPP ecosystem is, at present? Fragmentation of clients? What?

My sense is that it's this: when one goes to store an XMPP address in one's addressbook, there doesn't seem to be standard way to store an XMPP address. #Android doesn't have that as an allowable field, and #Thunderbird and #Nextcloud have an "Instant Messaging" field, where the type can be set to "XMPP". But are these two compatible with each other when trying to sync between them? Edit: Yes, but there's a catch: *the XMPP address must be prefixed with "xmpp:"*

So "user@foo.bar" is not an OK XMPP address, but "xmpp:user@foo.bar" is.

Then to make matters worse, now there's a wish to change the labeling of "XMPP Address" to "Chat ID": https://gultsch.social/@daniel/114012904576436518

It might be a long time before the address synchy-ness ever works again between Android <-> #Davx5 <-> Nextcloud <->Thunderbird

Note: Android allows a "Jabber" type for an IM address, where you *don't* prefix the address with "xmpp:".

(#DeltaChat gets to gloat hard here, as they have plain-old email addresses)
