Looks like Dino is enabling #OMEMO by default for the next release¹. I think that was the last of the major #XMPP clients to do so. Hopefully we can now put the "But XMPP is not encrypted by default" debate to rest.

You are encouraged to self-host #XMPP but you are not required to. We try to make self hosting as easy as possible. I think it is one step above hosting your own website but way easier than hosting your own e-mail.
If you are medium tech-savvy I recommend getting your own domain and going for an XMPP provider that let’s you bring your own domain (for example: account.conversations.im/domai…) this gives you the flexibility to self host or switch providers later.
Jabber/XMPP Domain Hosting
Let us host your Jabber/XMPP domain for you. Convenient webinferface. Available within 24 hours. Hosting starts at 12 Euro/yearaccount.conversations.im
hell no. Prefer using yours and donating an average of €3/month (have an Excel to track it, I donate in higher amounts to avoid higher fees). Reason: don't want to manage the server.
PS: can't find the donation link just now but I have you on Liberapay...

Relay server for NVDA's built in remote access functionality - nvaccess/remote-serverGitHub
You can host your own within NVDA by selecting "Server" from the first group of radio buttons inside the Connect dialog. That is most appropriate setup for controlling systems on your own local network, and is what we were discussing recently.
As for hosting a separate relay that is accessible to multiple people on the internet, I have no experience with that. @jonathan859 @KaraLG84

Exploring an Aira Call: Tools, Support, and What to Expect
Have you ever been curious about what tools our Visual Interpreters use during a call? What they’re able to do for you, what they can send, and what they can store in your profile? In this next video in our Aira Tutorials Series, we got a Visual Interpreter on the phone to walk us through it all.
In this video, we cover what to expect when a Visual Interpreter answers your call, what they can see through your camera, and how they describe it. You'll learn how they can take and send photos, customize your profile with helpful details, assist with safe navigation, and use tools like screen share for desktop tasks. We also explain how access offers work, how to use the in-call chat, and when to enable privacy mode.
Need more info? Visit aira.io, call us at 1-800-835-1934, or email support@aira.io. Our customer care team is available daily from 6 AM–6 PM Pacific Time to assist you.

Keyboard.io makes high-end angled and "split" keyboards
they wrote a letter to customers explaining how Trump's new tariffs will affect them
it's bad news for them -- prices have already shot up, and new tariffs Trump is threatening would *double* prices
their description of "why building something as complex as a keyboard is an inherently cross-border enterprise" is really interesting
they have to ship wood to China! that sort of wood isn't readily available there

#!/usr/bin/bashIt was calling the old version even though people were installing a later version with homebrew. After some research, I found out tht using:
#!/usr/bin/env interpreterIs more reliable. Of course, if you're only worried about Linux, which usually has an up to date bash, then:
#!/bin/bashworks just fine. I just got into the habbit of using env from that experience. I tend to use it for all shabangs now, python3, perl, bash etc.

Not sure how common it is for users to dislike having combined email, contacts, and calendar in one app but I’m one of them.
