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.
Any XMPP friendly people ?
I wanna have a few more contacts :3
peritia@xmpp.alovely.space
Also have this silly muc:
Hi @rocking_horse,
I see in your profile, that you are interested in #Jabber and #Meshtastic and #NNTP. Are you aware of any attempts to combine either #XMPP with Meshtastic (more likely?) or XMPP with NNTP (very unlikely?). Maybe you know some online resources on the topic?
I'm curious about #serverless XMPP and used to use it many years ago (#Gajim by @gajim with #Avahi). Nowadays @Goffi seems to push it on the agenda again, with #Libervia:
#fdroid just built the new versions of #Conversations_im and #Quicksy successfully.
This means that there are good chances that the new versions will appear in the F-Droid store in the next 24 hours.
The Play Store release is not so easy to predict. It means: Waiting for Google.
Hi #raspberrypi and #matrix #xmpp folks.
I want to setup a chat server on my old Raspi 4 with 4GB RAM.
What option would be best for self hosting a small server for around 10 to 30 people?

Moin,
wie ihr vielleicht gesehen habt, hat @daniel gerade berichtet, dass #Conversations_im 2.20.0 in Kürze zur Verfügung steht.
Ich habe ein kleines deutschsprachiges Feature-Preview Video für die Version erstellt:
https://makertube.net/w/c62E2MbfE5WSpB9uVC6p5p
#Conversations_im 2.20.0 has been tagged with some significant UI work.
• The main screen now features prominent access to search and can suggest contacts to you for quick navigation
• The media attachment flow has been reworked and is now closer to the input field.
• The tablet layout has been improved and the title bar is now split into two.
And not only Signal themself can pull the plug.
DJT holds the #killSwitch in his hand, by means of his best bro Jeff B.
#WalledGarden is walled Garden. Better use sth. #free and #federated. #Jabber/#XMPP, Jami, Briar, Matrix, Delta, whatever.
motherf... ConverseJS is Claude tainted. I was hoping to use that as a stepping stone to get my group off Mattermost, which is also tainted.
We are seeing bots attacking our Prav SMS verification API end point - they request OTP, but don't complete registration.
So we are forced to stop registrations until we figure out a solution. We have some suggestions already, if you have more ideas or like already proposed suggestions, then please comment here

speaking of askfedi, I need recommendations for FOSS XMPP mobile apps for Android. I've been wanting to try it out but am unsure what apps have the best security and privacy controls after all this time. I know XMPP as a protocol has been hacked and screwed with a lot over time

Got three(!) PRs merged today! 🥳
Next version of ejabberd will feature:
* new command `generate_reset_token` in case someone forgot their password
* web-admin interface for invite tokens, lists all existing invites, lets them browse, sort and filter, execute commands
* if landing page configured there’s now a start page that lets any user create invites using their account name and password (if allowed)
At this point, the Google Play app review process has become a security liability. I have had an app update for #Conversations_im in the review queue since April 28th. Previously, app updates have been rejected for stupid, hallucinated reasons; this time, we are just being ignored entirely. The release is not shipping any security fixes, but imagine if it did.
@celesteh @Steldamm @kkarhan I run my own #XMPP server and still had to migrate my family to #Signal for for daily use because the app ecosystem is only so-so for it, especially on iPhone/Apple products. Never could get my family to receive push-like notifications when they got new messages, no matter what I tried.
Nothing's perfect, but some things are more perfect than others. :)
@celesteh @Steldamm Well, I use #XMPP+#OMEMO.exlcusively and the #Metadata-#FUD by #Signal fans is.moot given they demand #PII in the form of a #PhoneNumber and are subject to #CloudAct.
- There are simple & privacy-preserving options, like @monocles, which one can even pay for with #CashByMail and #Monero!
Annndddd it's merged (in master).
+516 lines added and -2249 lines removed. Because sometimes you can make more with less 😽.
So for now you'll be able to join and leave audio and video calls in one click. You can also see who is calling in real-time in all the Groups you joined. 👀
The microphone level has been redesigned and the UI is now refreshing smoothly. 🎙️
Everything is working in full P2P and is based on the XMPP standard. No platform specific protocol.
You want to interoperate with Movim? Implement XEP-0272: Multiparty Jingle. Et voilà! ✨
Discord, brace yourself, FOSS, standard and federated alternatives are coming!
Ich habe die Empfehlungsecke »Messenger« überarbeitet und klar nach Zielgruppen getrennt:
Einsteiger / WhatsApp-Wechselwillige:
Signal bleibt meist der realistischste erste Schritt, weil Bedienung, Reichweite und Alltagstauglichkeit passen.
Datenschutzbewusste Kleingruppen:
Threema ist stark bei Datenschutz und googlefreier Nutzung, wegen geringer Verbreitung aber nur eingeschränkt als Wechsel-Empfehlung geeignet.
Fortgeschrittene / Selbsthoster:
XMPP und Matrix für mehr Autonomie und föderierte Infrastruktur.
Profis / Aktivisten / Journalisten:
Briar für Risikolagen, in denen Sicherheit, Anonymität und Zensurresistenz wichtiger sind als Komfort.

Something big is coming for audio and video calls in Movim 😯
You will soon be able to see in real time when your contacts are calling each-others in a group call and join whenever you want... leave, and join again.
Once everything is stabilized the feature will be added to Spaces.
We are this close to have audio (and video) rooms in Spaces 🤏
So, say goodbye to Discord, you'll soon have a fully web-based, Open Source, decentralized and standard calling platform to replace it. ✨
If you wan't to support me in this journey, I'm having a little crowdfunding campaign https://movim.eu/#fund 😽
The past few months have been wild for Movim!
We hit our first fundraising goal of €1,700 (covering the basic costs) 🎉, shipped Movim 0.33 "Halley", and held an XMPP hackathon in the French Alps 🇫🇷 ⛰️.
Up next: Spaces upgrades, audio rooms 🎙️, better video calls & SFU support.
We published a detailed version on the Movim Blog there https://mov.im/community/pubsub.movim.eu/Movim/first-2026-goal-reached-what-s-next-7cgeGX
Don't forget to share the good news and support us if you like the project. We still have a long way to go!
