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.

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.

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.

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.

Hop, je viens de mettre à jour mon article d'installation de serveur #XMPP pour le passage à Prosody 13.0.0 :

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.

#Libervia #XMPP

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.

Sensitive content Reveal/hide

So I just read the latest #DeltaChat article: blog.feld.me/posts/2025/03/del…

Can we please stop with #XMPP's supposed "very" fragmentation? That's the kind of cheap shots that annoy me. Just like summoning the almighty gtalk that doomed us all.

First, is it that bad? (myeah? "It depends")

And second, you're bound to hit some level of fragmentation as long as your policy is to allow various independent implementations on the network. IMO the *only* reason you're not fragmented *yet* is because you provide a single implementation across platforms.

#XMPP also has some of these, the first example that comes to mind being #Snikket (snikket.org).

Snikket Chat

Snikket is a simple, secure and private messaging app

^{Snikket Chat}

Maybe time for people and groups to start considering #Matrix for their current #Discord servers, as Discord becomes focused on getting money out of everyone who uses it, with likely enshitification beginning soon. #XMPP/#Jabber is also an alternative.

Both are decentralized, publicly owned services, where you can interact with anyone else regardless of which server they choose to be hosted on, just like Mastodon, et al.

Prepare For Discord To Get Way Worse

The video game chat platform is reportedly exploring a Wall Street IPO

Well Libervia on which I'm working does all of that (and even experimental remote desktop control).

I'm working on web frontend redesign, then stabilisation, and I should work on a release hopefully in a not too distant feature.

Movim also does A/V calls and screen sharing.

#Libervia #Movim #XMPP #work

With the most recent update to the Video rooms (BETA) on #Element, it seems as though everything is there to be a suitable Discord replacement. Screen sharing, audio calls, video calls. It's all there, now I just need to convince people to give this program a shot for a third time.. Maybe I'll wait til after the beta.

If only #XMPP had a client like this. 😢

Gajim's profile - Liberapay

Gajim is a fully-featured XMPP client.

^Liberapay

What's the state of #matrix, #xmpp and #IRC as far as #screenReader -accessible clients are concerned? Desktop (Windows, Mac) and mobile (iOS, Android).

Hoping for some input, please feel free to boost. As far as I know:

Matrix does not have a lightweight, fully accessible client for desktop, but one could be modified, such as #gomuks. On mobile, Element has scrolling issues, which is unacceptable for large rooms.

XMPP has accessible desktop clients (I used to run #Adium on the Mac), also #WeeChat. No idea about mobile.

IRC is perhaps the one which everything supports on desktop, from #MirandaIM through Weechat to the old Freedom Chat, which I could probably rewrite if I had to. Also not sure about mobile, but it would definitely need push notifications, because we can't expect people to stay constantly online on the go. #a11y #accessibility

Gajim 2.0.0 has been released 🎉

Gajim migrated its user interface toolkit to GTK 4, which brings performance improvements and sets the ground for great features to follow. ⏩

Additionally, this release brings improved image previews, better tools for fighting spam, and much more.

All of these changes were only possible by touching a lot of Gajim’s code base, and we appreciate all the feedback we got from you. ❤️
