As a board member of the XSF for this term and for the first time, I don't really find myself in disagreement. It seems to me the culture of change is almost nonexistent and it's hard or close to impossible to get the XSF to provo

I agree, and this is one of the reasons I use (and contribute to) XMPP. For the Extensibility part.

You can also do XMPP over HTTP (long-polling aka bosh, or websockets). If people really want to add a layer, it is doable :)

I've been prosody for about 10 years now and I've always been happy with it. You can get it at https://prosody.im , and if necessary there's a good tutorial at https://homebrewserver.club/configurin

fwiw Pidgin is the cause of many rants in the XMPP "inner circles" since the adoption of new feature is close to 0.

Maybe the OMEMO issues you're talking about are worth reporting?

by ppjet6 7y ago
As I understand it, Pidgin's XMPP feature hasn't been maintained for some time now. It doesn't do many core features well or at all. If you like it and it suits you, great :)

Congrats!

Because nobody said it and everybody is centered on how XMPP is ugly/beautiful: Congrats for the release :)

You missed xmpp.net for TLS which has been here for as long as I can remember.

Curious to know where they got that info from. The source seems to be heise.de, and that's the only other article I can find about it. As for the EU, did they just ask the nerd in the IT department? I want to see them as our (XSF) next

I cannot agree with this enough. So many resources wasted trying to replicate what's already been done, but this is not an issue with XMPP only. There are still lots of fun challenges in many clients and servers if that is what you&#x2

While I understand the concerns and I appreciate all of what Conversations' author is doing for the community, other clients have also seen significant improvements lately. Gajim[0] has practically come back from the "dead".

Cake! As I said in another thread, glad to see the community is still active.

I'm curious to know what you find intimidating, and I'm sure there are plenty of people ready to help.

Glad to see the community around XMPP is still active. /me prepares the cake.

Because every webmail solution comes bundled with imap and smtp right. Even then, you would still need to setup DNS (and potentially certificates if not LE).

This seems like smoke and mirrors to me: Traditionally, in Signal that process has looked like: The client calculates the truncated SHA256 hash of each phone number in the device’s address book. The client transmits those tru
