I’m happy to announce the release 0.17 of the poezio terminal #XMPP client!

This features adds support for XEP-0444: Message reactions.

You can read more about it on my blog: https://blog.mathieui.net/poezio-0-17.html

Fun fact: poezio was one of the very first clients with support for message reactions, during the XMPP sprint where they were initially fleshed out, but the PoC branch got lost in a forge move 🤐

@TomsITCafe

I'm using #Jabber exclusively since ≈ 2014.

No walled gardens, neither WA nor Signal.

But IRC, Matrix, and SMS via #XMPP gateways.

What do you think of XMPP? #jabber #xmpp #chat #omemo

Maybe #jabberEl with #emacspeak?

Heard good things about #Emacs by a #blind user in a local makerspace.

¿Sabían que el protocolo XMPP, nacido originalmente bajo el nombre de Jabber en 1998, fue diseñado para romper el aislamiento entre los sistemas de mensajería cerrados de finales del siglo XX?

Jeremie Miller creó esta tecnología basada en XML para permitir que diferentes servidores se comunicaran entre sí de forma abierta, similar al funcionamiento del correo electrónico. Antes de su estandarización, servicios como ICQ, MSN Messenger y AIM funcionaban como islas donde los usuarios no podían enviarse recados si no pertenecían a la misma empresa. XMPP introdujo el concepto de pasarelas, que permitía a un solo cliente conectarse a múltiples redes externas mediante una estructura de red descentralizada donde nadie posee el control total del flujo de la información.

En el año 2004, el Grupo de Trabajo de Ingeniería de Internet (IETF) formalizó este conjunto de reglas como un estándar abierto, lo que permitió su adopción en infraestructuras críticas. Debido a su flexibilidad para gestionar la presencia en línea y el intercambio de datos en tiempo real, empresas como Google y Facebook utilizaron XMPP en sus inicios para cimentar sus plataformas de chat antes de decidir cerrar sus ecosistemas a protocolos propietarios. En la actualidad, este sistema sigue siendo la base de redes de comunicación seguras y aplicaciones que priorizan la autonomía del usuario frente a las grandes corporaciones digitales.

@joinjabber ooh, that is GREAT to hear! Thanks!

Is there a reason that I should be using #Jabber versus other #XMPP clients?

#jabberEl 0.10.5 is now in #Debian unstable!

It's a huge update and does #OMEMO and #OX #encryption.

The inevitable channel about it is here:

It could be the number one #Jabber client for me, as soon as:

- it gets message reactions (planned!)

- incoming A/V calls are signalled like in #profanity

- bugs are solved, that break all send/receive of my main account 😐

@delta @pixelschubsi @adbenitez

I absolutely agree, that "a cross-platform mass-user focused app with a consistent UX across the platforms" is missing desperately in the #Jabber/#XMPP ecosystem.

There are really good clients for Jabber, but none of them fits above description.

AFAIK, both #Snikket/#Borogove by @snikket_im and #Fluux by @ProcessOne try to close that gap.

Still, I prefer the approach of Delta building on #Rust and #Tauri, instead of #Haxe or #Typescript. #YKINMKBYKIOK.

I’m delighted to announce that the OpenPGP implementation in #Conversations_im will see some love over the next ~6 months. Simultaneously, we will be laying the groundwork for OMEMO2 by implementing Stanza Content Encryption.

Thanks to funding from @nlnet and the European Commission.

Just fresh out of the oven, release 0.16.1 of the poezio TUI XMPP client!

Mostly fixes and internal stuff, but also adds the ability to see redacted/moderated messages if you wish so – particularly useful if you are the one moderating –.

So @snikket_im are going to write their own iOS #Jabber client? Huge task!

Since my new XMPP upload server implementation "Rusty Filer" has been working great on trashserver.net since two weeks, I present to you:

The first release of Rusty Filer! https://codeberg.org/thomas.leister/rusty-filer/releases/tag/v1.0.0 🥳

It has the same features as Prosody Filer, but it also available as a deb package and via a apt repository (for simple deployment and automatic updates!).

If you run into any issues using this server, let me know in the Codeberg issues.

Something @larma and I have been working on during the #IETF125 Hackathon in Shenzhen:

Dino (@dino) and #Conversations_im can now give you a little warning if it's currently the middle of the night for the contact you are chatting with.

#XMPP #Jabber

I recently added a display to #Conversations_im showing the number of stanzas (XMPP packets) sent/received in the current session. What are your counts and how long has your session been active? (Account Details -> 'Server info' in the overflow menu.)

Yesterday, I quickly put together a tutorial on how to replace ntfy.sh with a minimal, self-hosted XMPP server and published it as a GitHub Gist. Then I remembered I have a website and reworked it into two nice little posts:

Les recordamos que nuestros servidores, además de proveer esta distinguida instancia , también aloja un servidor XMPP que es incluso, anterior a la instancia de Mastodon . Es de los primeros servicios que tuvimos en Undernet junto con el correo electrónico . XMPP es un sistema de mensajería federado y descentralizado , como Mastodon, donde cada servidor tiene cuentas, y puede agregar cuentas de otros servidores y asi chatear. Existen salas públicas y privadas a las que uno puede unirse o crearlas si no existen. Nuestro admin @gabriel ha hecho una recopilación de muchas de estas salas en su blog --> https://publicar.uy/salas-de-mensajeria-xmpp-en-espanol/ XMPP es un protocolo que existe desde fines de los 90s y se le han ido agregando cosas, porque es un protocolo modular. Hoy en día se pueden hacer hasta llamadas de audio y video , compartir imágenes , ubicación ... etc. Nuestro servidor al igual que Mastodon Uruguay, y todos los servicios de Undernet, están integramente alojados en Uruguay en forma autogestionada e independiente 🇺🇾 y tiene en total unas 300 cuentas registradas en los dos dominios que administramos que son @undernet.uy y @buzon.uy de las cuales se conectan diariamente unas 70+ . El servidor esta conectado con otros 600 servidores XMPP. Si no lo probaste, podes bajarte un cliente como Conversations, Monocles, Xabber para android, Snikket para iPhone o Gajim y Dino para Lunux e incluso clientes para terminal y registrar una cuenta en nuestro servidor u otros.
