☁️The recent AWS outage showed how fragile “cloud-based security” can be.

When one datacenter faltered, global communication tools — including Signal — went dark 🌑

🕸️Matrix-based messaging systems kept running because they don’t rely on a single provider.

Resilience = decentralization

Let's invest in open, federated platforms.

Libervia CLI tip 5:

You can retrieve or modify your contacts list (aka “roster” in XMPP terms) with `li roster`.

One of the subcommands, `stats`, gives you, as its name implies, statistics on your roster.

You’ll notably get the number of contacts per domain, with a percentage representing the domain's “weight.” It’s a simple way to see how decentralized your contacts network is.

A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats :xmpp:

We have published a new blog post recently: providers.xmpp.net/blog/2025-0…

Here we cover our #survey results to gather feedback from #XMPP #server #operators. We also provided more background on the project's purpose.

Thanks to all survey participants!

I said it before on Mastodon. I'm reposting this again. Comparing #DeltaChat and #Matrix together, if you want hassle free and consistent messenger for private #E2EE chats, don't go for Matrix. DeltaChat is way better.

However, if you want something like a public forum, or a public chatroom, don't go for DeltaChat. Matrix is way better suited for that. And DeltaChat does not support public groups at all. In DeltaChat groups, there is no admin or moderator and everyone have got permission to remove or add the others.

I think I have to write a longer post on my personal blog about these two, comparing them together.

PS: Another Matrix encryption bug few minutes ago triggered repost of this.

**Push notifications for decentralized services**

How mobile push notifications currently bring centralization to decentralized services, and how we can avoid it, even for mainstream configurations.

Hello folks I need your help, after a lot of efforts, I am on the final steps of making #ArcaneChat available in #GooglePlay

now they ask to create a "closed testing release" where only some invited testers via their google account email address can participate and install the app before they allow a public release

please write to me in private sending me your google account's email address (gmail I guess) to join as beta-tester, thanks a lot in advance! ♥️🙏

in the next #ArcaneChat release: new option to control behavior of notifications of reactions and replies to your messages as well as the new mini-apps notifications in muted chats

don't lose important replies or reactions to your messages while keeping all the uninteresting chat flood/noise away 😌
