One thing that could help: #XMPP client devs using slidcord so they can improve the features discord users enjoy.
OK this was a shameless plug and is definitely not the most important thing. 😏

I knew @MapComplete could add ratings to Mangrove Reviews...but YIL it can add reviews too! (The OSM POI search on Mangrove Reviews' own site is mysteriously broken.)
In future mapping parties we're _so_ going to be using this to add reviews of the places we eat at! Heck, I've already asked participants of the last two parties to add them 🙂

Hab gerade ein Problem das sich #Conversations nicht mit meinem Server verbinden will...
#blabberIM auf demselben Gerät tuts aber... 🥴
Ich weiß das ich noch Probleme mit dem Zertifikat am Server habe, aber dennoch würde ich bis ich das gefixt habe kommunizieren können...
Bis vor kurzem hat es auch noch funktioniert 😵💫
Hat ein Update da irgendwas geändert oder wie kann ich mein Problem lösen?
So installed prosody on my small personal instance and finally run my own #XMPP server. This was surprisingly simple and seems pretty lightweight . Well I don’t know if I did it right 😅 but it seems to work.
You can reach me on XMPP with santiago@lema.@org just like my email.
The next #XMPP Developer Sprint is coming up.
📍 Wikimedia Offices, Berlin, Germany
📆 Friday, May 23rd - Sunday, May 25th 2025
❓ Sprints (aka Hackathons) are a great opportunity for interoperability testing, planning new features, meeting other XMPP developers and generally having a good time.

Boom, Movim 0.30.1 is out! ✨
In this new release you'll find a new avatar and banner configuration panel, animated GIF support in the picture proxy and some more improvements in the internal color palette management 🎨
Movim is also now supports the XEP-0392: Consistent Color Generation that allows you to have the same default color for your contacts between all the XMPP clients ☺️!
And as always bug fixes and improvements 😌
The complete release note on our blog: mov.im/community/pubsub.movim.…
Following last month's 0.30 Encke important upgrade here is the first bug-fix release! What's…mov.im
Conversations 2.18.2 is available on Google Play and has client side mitigations for a server side security issue that was recently discovered and fixed in #ejabberd¹ and #OpenFire²
Go update your server. But just in case that takes a minute Conversations has your back too!
This release also fixes an issue with restoring (importing) backups on recent Android versions.

Finally have my Prosody server all compliant!
I had an epiphany last night about something in the nginx config and after sorting that, all the optional XEP listed also pass!
Now to convince wife and kids to use it for our group chat... they really don't want to install any more apps, because I'm "being difficult" because they already use whatsapp 😑
The main reason I'm impressed with it over matrix, is reliable notifications. It just works. So far, anyway.
Thank you to the people that replied to my post last week suggesting I try xmpp after the matrix server we used shut down. I had written it off as an old platform for nerds, but it's... actually really good ❤️
We decided to create a small #survey on our #XMPP Providers project and invite server operators to send their feedback!

It should not take longer than 2 minutes. The survey is open until 1st May 2025.
Looking forward to hear from you.

#Conversations_im has the ability to fetch outage status information from an independent server and display that in case the regular #XMPP server can not be reached.
This is powered by XEP-0455 (xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0455.h…).
TLDR: Server gives client a URL to a JSON file during normal connects, client will hold on to that URL and fetch the JSON file in case server is unreachable.
This document defines an XMPP protocol extension that enables server administrators to communicate issues with the server to all users in a semantic manner.Mathieu Pasquet
The EU is mandating messaging apps be compatible with each other, but the current plan is looking less like #federation and more like "register your chat app with Meta, send them all your data, and link with their prescribed APIs that they may decide to change any day"
At the risk of preaching to the converted, here's @guusdk advocating for *real* interoperability between messaging apps, using an existing, battle-tested, #IETF-backed standard: #XMPP!

Now that I got #xmpp concepts and I know how this works, I found a good reason to think that #profanity is not good enoght, the reason is on the picture.
Basically I can't fetch the previous messages on grupchats something that is required for me.
#xmpp @jabber comunity Do you know about a tui or console app that support this and other usuful XEPs?
A recent security audit of #Conversations_im¹ found that wildcard certificate handling didn’t fully comply with the spec.
Conversations was accepting *.a.example for c.b.a.example, even though wildcards are only meant to match a single label.
This issue has been fixed in version 2.18.0, now live on Google Play.

@samueljohnson Glad you asked. Signal is a centralized service run on Big Tech infrastructure. You can decide to trust Signal as your service provider; That’s absolutely fine and reasonable even. But they don’t allow federation or inter-op with anyone who wants to make different choices.
#XMPP gives you that choice. Don’t trust me to be your server operator? That’s fine: pick a different one.
Donations to Signal are directly funding Amazon, Google and Microsoft.¹

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.
Let us host your Jabber/XMPP domain for you. Convenient webinferface. Available within 24 hours. Hosting starts at 12 Euro/yearaccount.conversations.im
I'm putting the finishing touches on a massive release of the Converse #XMPP chat client. 🚀
✨ Here’s what to look forward to:
◾ Groupchat DMs: You can DM other participants without knowing their address
◾ Blocklists for spammers 💩
◾ Accessibility improvements, like support for RTL languages
◾ Media enhancements
◾Big performance enhancements, particularly for chats with a long history and many participants.
◾Three new themes, Nordic 🗻 , Dracula 🧛♂️ and Cyberpunk 🌆

Good news everyone, Movim 0.30 codename Encke ☄️ is finally there! 🥳
This release is actually way bigger than you might think! Movim is bringing group-call to all your devices and still rely 100% on the XMPP standard (it is even compatible with @dino ✨).
In this new version you'll also find a lot of improvements in the UI, a better integration of the Stories and a new way to personalize how Movim looks 🎨 .
Thanks to @nlnet and for their support ❤️.
Share the good new around and invite your friends to join Movim 😊 !

I think I’ve found a relatively nice solution for #FediLinks in #Conversations_im.
You can put web+ap URIs into a message (or room description) and ideally a click on those will open your Mastodon client. However if no installed app supports those (the only app that I’m aware of is Fedilab) Conversations will open a browser instead.
Currently no app will create web+ap links but it is fairly easy to handcraft them.

In 3 days, the jabber.fr wiki, a niche specialized wiki with a lot of outdated info and only one or two occasional contributors at the moment, has served more than 200 000 pages to shitty LLM bots.
Our PHP and mariadb processes are constantly hammered by them, and most of them are masquerading as normal traffic with browser user agents.
Is there a better solution than blocking off entire countries and cloud provider subnets at the moment?
