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.
If Waydroid only were part of #Debian and #Mobian 😐
https://bugs.debian.org/1001278
Anyway, if I had a Signal account, I probably would use it with my #Jabber client over #slidge. Which needs work in Debian, too 😞
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.
Now #jabberEl 0.10.3 (the one with #OMEMO etc.) is in #Debian #experimental. If everything goes well, an upload to #unstable will follow soon.
#Jabber.el is living #XMPP and #freeSoftware #history, just like #Gajim by @gajim. Both started around the same time. The initial commit of Gajim was 2003-10-22, while jabber.els was 2003-12-15.
#Emacs, of course, goes back to the early 1980s.
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 –.

Ok, cool kids of XMPP! How do I find (new) chatgroups in XMPP/Jabber?
I made me a new XMPP acc yesterday and now it's kinda silent there. I'd like to change that. But I'm having problems finding (active) rooms. Back in the days there was a muc search on the web but I can't remember the address. :(

I wouldn't take that too seriously. The thing is, that jabber.el was really outdated when it comes to modern #Jabber usage. I practically could not use it at all. Now it made a *huge* jump forward (I didn't try the new version yet, but plan to do so) and that's sth. @thanosapollo does celebrate. It's not that non-Emacs users would change their preferred TUI client anyway 🙂
Great post by @thanosapollo about #Emacs and #Jabber/#XMPP:
https://thanosapollo.org/posts/emacs-jabber-revival/
"Now, jabber.el is the most XEP-complete text-based client in existence."
#mcabber, #poezio, and #profanity get a tough time, I guess.
"Emacs is not just the editor I write jabber.el in. It is the runtime, the test harness, and the application.
I develop in the same instance where I chat. Fix a bug, eval changes, and the fix is live in my running session. Seconds, not minutes."
Life has meaning, again!

I'm not sure, if it's appropriate to mention their support for #XMPP. Last time I checked, it was extremely outdated regarding moden #Jabber usage. Many of the features people take for granted nowadays, were not implemented. Did that improve?
We are at Chemnitzer Linux Tage with a stand for #XMPP and #UnifiedPush.
Come find us and talk to us or grab some stickers or Haribo.

Because free software is also about accessibility, I'm doing some important work in Movim to ensure that the user interface can be navigated using the keyboard only. ♥️
This work also involves proper labeling and description of the page elements for people with visual impairments. 💬
This side project is supported by @nlnet. Thanks to them for making Movim an even better communication platform for everyone. ✨
#XMPP Community
The #Chat of the Future Initiative discusses their spring activities progress today from 19:00 (UTC+1)!
Topics: Unified promotion material as well as an idea for a new community online event.
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:

Lots of little fixes and improvements. Especially for Mac.
