Setting up #XMPP for my family has made clear that UX for exchanging #OMEMO keys is in need of improvement.
It should be a simple matter of everybody scanning everybody else's QR code and maybe tapping a button. Not having to dig through contact settings to even find the QR code, and definitely not eyeballing hex digits.
Also, scanning one of a person's QR codes should cause me to trust *all* of their clients via some kind of cross-signing, not just one of their clients.
Hope this improves!

Unknown parent • • •Excellent. Conversations does seem to be the overall best XMPP client I've seen so far.
Now for the other clients to implement the same feature. Monal and Gajim don't seem to have QR code scanning at all.
