Gajim 1.8.0 has been released 🥳 and it comes with integrated OMEMO encryption! Integrating the OMEMO plugin brings tighter integration and better user experience.

We also rearranged the chat menu and added some quick buttons for convenience.

Both Gajim’s message search and conversation view received some important changes and fixes.

Thank you for all your contributions!

Cool! Unfortunately it will be probably a little to late to be integrated in debian bookworm.

@matze we were aware of that, thanks to @debacle
But it's only ready when it's ready 😉

Thank you a lot for all the work you have been doing on Gajim! I recently started using XMPP again thanks to it, it's very nice to use! 😄

Sort of unrelated but does Gajim do voice/video calling? I looked at it once before and decided against it because it was missing a few features, but I like its interface a little better. If it'll do OMEMO, OpenPGP and voice/video calling it might be time to give it another look, 😊
in reply to Marcus

@gerowen Gajim's voice/video calling does not support the newest standard (which is used by Conversations, for example).
in reply to Gajim

looks better indeed with omemo integrated. Good work.

Is there plans to support omemo 2? Currently Kaidan and gajim can't communicate encrypted with each other.

@vascorsd there have been some preparations for OMEMO:2, but no plans yet.
