The XMPP Software Foundation has published an open letter to Meta, asking them to support true messaging interoperability using the XMPP protocol.

Meta had previously integrated this protocol, and WhatsApp is actually built on XMPP for its message routing system.

We support this initiative as it represents the best approach for genuine interoperability. Federation is the way to go !

Movim offers a feature-packed social and chat alternative to the big centralized and proprietary platforms. ✨

It is decentralized, fully built on the #XMPP Internet standard and can easily be deployed on a simple web server.

Which social or chat platform do you think Movim replaces the best? 🤔

I recently developed a thing to turn a Conversations chat* into a PDF.

codeberg.org/moji/typst-conver…

That story began with a friend of mine that had got a XMPP group chat where they shared updates and pictures of their latest travel adventure. Now chat is rather ephemeral and they wanted to preserve those memories in an easy accessible format that is PDF. And so I put something together.

* actually any chat as long as you can get the raw data in the expected format

There are no known security issues with "Siacs OMEMO" / OMEMO v0.3¹ despite of what some very loud Signal fans would like you to believe. It has been audited by a third party² who took a longer look at it than all of the Signal fans combined.

Yes, #OMEMO v0.7+ (or TWOMEMO 😜) is a cleaner spec with more features (most notably Stanza Content Encryption). That’s why we wrote it. I’m a co-author. That doesn’t mean v0.3 is insecure.

Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. That's the predictable strategy all big corps will take: to use Open Standards as a ladder they can climb up, to popularity and profit. Then kick the ladder out from under them. Gullibility in this regard will only set back Open Standards for a very long time. #XMPP should have pretty much taken over the world by now, but was passed over time and again by the likes of Meta and Google/Alphabet, who usurped it, then betrayed it.

What the hell is wrong with #Jabber? The two most important console clients, #Poezio and #Profanity, both released version 0.15.0 today. Same version number, same day, same first letter "P". Do you want to confuse us all?

At least Poezio is written in #Python, Profanity in #C/#Clang, i.e. there are some differences. Otherwise it would be too much.

It’s time for real interoperability. Let’s make it happen.

The #DMA targets walled gardens and messaging interoperability. Meta, the designated gatekeeper, offers an solution that falls short of its goals.

The XMPP Standards Foundation (@xmpp) publishes an Open Letter to Meta, to advocate for adoption of #XMPP for messaging interoperability.

The letter: xmpp.org/announcements/open-le…

Technical briefing: xmpp.org/announcements/open-le…

do y'all know any good #xmpp providers?

Tient, Discord ajoute de la publicité vidéo en juin dans son client (oui prévisible, on l'avait prévu depuis 2015) …

Du coup, pour les personnes qui seraient intéressées de migrer vers autre chose pour vos famille, vos groupe de potes, vos asso, etc…
Ceci est le rappel sur : N'hésitez pas à venir me demander conseils à propos de XMPP.

Idem si vous avez besoin d'accompagnement, de mise en place, des questions, etc.

Vous pouvez me contacter ici, ou par mail, ou par XMPP.

Et le retoot est bienvenue !

Getting started with XMPP/Jabber and PGP for federated, encrypted messaging

This is a short thread where I explain how I started using the XMPP protocol and PGP encryption for secure messaging. I am not a security expert, but I am a mathematician and I am confortable with the Linux command line. This guide is for people who want to use PGP for secure messaging easily. You will need to be okay with typing commands into the Linux command line in order to do this, but I will tell you exactly what to enter.

Part 1: XMPP

Mastodon is like email, but for social media. You sign up for an account with a server, and then you can talk with any other accounts that are signed up on other servers, as long as your servers are getting along. (No one wants emails from the sketchy spam server, and we want to be able to choose between Yahoo, Gmail, etc.) XMPP (a.k.a. Jabber) is the same thing for text messaging.

Just like signing up for an email/Mastodon account, you need to sign up for an account. You can find a list of servers at list.jabber.at/ and will probably at least need to provide an email addess when making an account.

Once you have made an account, you need a client. On Linux, I've been having a good time using Dino (dino.im/). You can then enter your account name and password to log into your XMPP account and start chatting! There are both public rooms and you can also message directly with your friends.

la messagerie via XMPP est géniale ! Pas besoin d'un numéro de téléphone ou d'une adresse mail pour s'inscrire. J'ai installé Conversation sur la tablette familiale et créé un compte pour chacune de mes filles. Ainsi, elle peuvent me joindre en cas de besoin. Merci infiniment pour ce service !

In Monocles Chat is there a way to copy my #XMPP chat history to a new device? As in, for adding a secondary device that'll be using different OMEMO keys but will share existing chat history.

Can't find a way to do this on Conversations IM either.

#xmpp


#xmpp is there a tool to test, end to end, media streams quality (latency, loss, distortion after decoding) in a video call of two clients?
If not, would *you* be interested to sponsor development of such tool?

Hop, je viens de mettre à jour mon article d'installation de serveur #XMPP pour le passage à Prosody 13.0.0 :
toutetrien.lithio.fr/article/i…

Ça consiste basiquement à retirer le module "posix" déprécié et renommer le module "server_contact_info" en "server_info".

#xmpp


Prosody 13.0.0 is here! Farewell Zero-ver!
This major release brings a number of exciting new features, including improved security, performance, and administration tools.
Check it out: blog.prosody.im/prosody-13.0.0…

A new version of #libstrophe has been released. libstrophe is a library for writing #XMPP clients.
You can find more information in the ChangeLog.





The web frontend redesign is underway! Chat functionality is almost ready, and completing it is a critical step towards a Libervia release. I’ll likely be making a video soon to show off the progress.

My 10 yo nephew preferred Dino over Discord :) So, Dino it is!

He told me "It works super well! It is better than Discord!" "😍" "With Discord I had connection issues" (but I guess he was lost in the interface)

I am now tied to #xmpp, thanks @dino ;)

The yax.im web server is undergoing surprise server migration. This also affects xmpp.link but not the xmpp server - we hope to restore all services by tomorrow.
