So, the past few days we focused on fixing numerous bugs in Movim with many fixes in Multi-participants calls and general presences handling.

We're slowly getting closer to a proper release, stay tuned ✨

And if you wan't to help us making Movim the best Free Software, decentralized web platform: https://movim.eu/#fund ♥️

What's a good #xmpp app for apple iphone?

I'm using #conversations_im on android, but want to add someone on my server who exists in the apple world

Buem, para terminar la semana, nuestro ISP esta teniendo problemas en la zona, asi que #cyberdelia y nuestros servicios #XMPP y #Mumble estan offline hasta que los vuelvan a conectar con la civilización.

I'm testing #xmpp with #snikket today. It was straight forward to install the server. Like 10minutes. I was very impressed!!

But then the problem started… with #encryption key managment problem.

Basically I wanted to write to a #quicksy user (aka myself) and that didn't work because of some 'Aucun appareil pour qui chiffrer ce message n'a été trouvé. Recherche d'appareils en cours…'

I know that there is a lot of work to improve the situation. I'm open to report bugs, but I have no idea if it should be done in snikket, quicksy, gajim, kaidan …

@mindaugas

That's two issues: One is #security (Signal is good regarding #confidentiality and #integrity, but not necessarily #availability) and the other #digitalSovereignty, which calls for #federation.

My comment was about the chart by @AliceStollmeyer, titled "take back control". Signal is partially controlled by AWS, i.e. they can switch it off.

Not mentioning #Jabber/#XMPP among secure messaging apps is wrong, of course 🙂 Just don't take that site serious.

You like Signal for it's outstanding #confidentiality? Fine!

You like Threema, since it's safe, it's from #Switzerland, and #ElsbethSigmund as #Heidi was your #childhoodCrush? Great!

You like Whatsapp, because your friends are there? I don't blame you!

But 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 don't claim, that any of those #centralServices would support #digitalAutonomy, #digitalIndependence, #digitalSovereignty. They have their merits, but they still are #walledGardens.

@AliceStollmeyer

Suggesting federated apps, like Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, Friendica, Peertube, and Loops for more #digitalSovereignty makes sense. Not only for the #EU, but for every country or #NGO.

Mentioning Signal, however, does not help. It's a centralized service on the Amazon cloud, also depending on Google. If DJT wants to shut it down, it's gone in a second.

Bettter suggest federated chat, like #Jabber/#XMPP. It's the fediverse of chat since 1999 🙂

JabberFR sera présent en tant que stand aux @jdll cette année les 30 et 31 mai de 10h à 18h à l’ENS de Lyon !

I released yesterday version 0.16 of Poezio, a terminal XMPP client, here is the blog post with a release announcement: https://blog.mathieui.net/poezio-0-16.html

Some nice bugfixes (thanks @ge0rg for testing), and finally handling of message moderation & retraction.

Note: the fact that we very often share version numbers with @profanity is a pure coincidence!

#xmpp #python #poezio

With the help of the Prosody channel (specifically MattJ), I finally fixed sending XMPP messages from Home Assistant.
The trick was adding and configuring https://modules.prosody.im/mod_muc_bot.html properly:

Component "muc.example.com" "muc"
modules_enabled = { [...], "muc_bot"}
known_bots = { "homeassistant@example.com" }
bots_get_messages = false
ignore_bot_errors = true

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. ✨

Ihr trefft Ostern eure Familien? Das ist ja klasse! Ostersonntag fällt dieses Jahr auf den Digital Independence Day.

Bittet eure Familie doch einfach, sich jetzt bereits die App #Conversations_im zu sichern. Ostern könnt ihr sie dann mit ihnen einrichten.

Alternativ gebt ihr ihnen eine Anleitung: https://imday.de/

Due to the recent popularity of #Conversations_im, I've already earned more than enough money this month and have decided to make the app free this week. Use this opportunity to onboard friends who might otherwise have a hard time paying for the app

For Twisted/XMPP developers: I've published Tx-XMPP, a (friendly) fork of Wokkel due to it being unmaintained for years. I've merged several PRs that I needed, along with code from `sat_tmp`, which was a "temporary" package to monkey-patch Wokkel to add those changes (finally not needed anymore after 11+ years!).

https://pypi.org/project/tx-xmpp/

I will provide minimal maintenance to keep it up-to-date with the latest versions of Twisted and Python.

I happen to use #Jabber/#XMPP for both use cases.

It all started for me ≈ 2014 with a third use case: The "small town": We needed a chat for my development team, so we "sudo apt install prosody" and later let join the whole company (30..40 people).

You can find larger group chats here:

https://search.jabber.network/ (thanks, @sjn)

But I'm also in IRC channels via the #biboumi gateway and in Matrix rooms via #slige by @nicoco.

i am still searching for the right #messenger for my communities! It has to be #SelfHostable and #foss

Use Case "City"
– big groups (100 to open end) with persons i don't know. In the moment this function is served by #telegram

Use Case "Garden"
– personal contact with persons i know. Small groups like friends and family. In the moment this function is served by #signal

it is #matrix? DeltaChat? #XMPP? something else?

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.

A tiny but very useful feature has been added in Movim today: you can now swipe to reply! ✨

And thanks a lot for your support, the yearly project costs has almost been covered 😁! And if you want to support me, everything is on the main website https://movim.eu/#fund

Enjoy ♥️!

(I also heard that there might be a Movim release in the upcoming weeks 👀)

I was a bit silent the past few days. It's because I was focusing on improving and fixing many features related to Spaces in Movim 😁

Notifications and message counter are now correctly working in Spaces 🔔✨ Some other issues, related to performances and navigation were also fixed along the way 👀

There is also a totally new flow when adding a chatroom or answering an invite. Movim will try to know if the room you are joining is valid and gives you hints about it before adding it to your bookmarks ℹ️

I'm planning a new release in the upcoming weeks with all those exciting new features in it 😉

Enjoy!

In case you're using the official ejabberd packages on Debian stable: They're affected by a recent CA policy change (e.g., Let's Encrypt), causing ejabberd to reject newly issued certificates and thereby breaking federation with some remote servers. Deploy this update to fix the issue:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1128568#23

You may also want to consider enabling mod_s2s_dialback to deal with remote servers that haven't been updated yet.

#Matrix ist für mich gestorben. Ich werde meine Instanz wohl noch etwas laufen lassen, allerdings mir das ganze System zu kompliziert:
Ich war bis letzte Woche im @gnulinux Talk. Das lief auf meinem ("einfach zu installierendem") matrix-synapse auch mit meinem XMPP-Transport (Element ist mir zu behäbig, ich mags einfach nicht!) mit, ab und zu gab ich mal meinen Senf dazu, okay. Nun wurde das auf eine ominöse "Raum V12"-Version (??) geupdated - bei mir gehts nicht. Immerhin hat man seitens Gnulinux nachgeschaut, was los ist - heraus kam: geht nicht mit meinem Matrix-Synapse. Man gab mir außerdem zu verstehen, daß das Matrix-Synapse nicht so gut wäre. Ich bin nur user, aber ein user, der seit 2008 seinen eigenen #XMPP-Server am laufen hat. Gegen Matrix ist das ein Kinderspiel, muß ich feststellen - bzw. die Workarounds sind gut/besser dokumentiert.
Insgesamt ist Matrix aus meiner Sicht zu kompliziert, zu behäbig, für mich halt unpraktikabel.

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.
