I'm excited to announce that #Convo, my #XMPP messaging app for #KaiOS has received a grant from @nlnet, or, more specifically, @NGIZero! 🎉 🤸

I can now turn what began as a quick project made in a providential three weeks of free time into an app that can...actually do basic things like add contacts 😅

More importantly, it'll make the open and standardised messaging protocol available to a mobile platform where few large players have dared to tread 👟

A printout of an NGI Zero Commons fund information document, with a few things placed on top. Diagonally from top left to bottom right are: A Nokia 8110 "Bananaphone", an amigurumi (crochet) axolotl, and a Nokia 2720 Flip phone. On the top right corner of the paper is a round clockwork hen named clock-a-doodle-doo. Both phones are running the Convo app: one with an empty group chat list, and another with a list of conversations. If you look closely and get past the pixellation and blurred-ness, you might recognise group chats with icons for: Convo, XSF Communications Team, XSF Discussion, and JoinJabber General Chat.
