Can anymany tell me how I'm "supposed" to use end-to-end encryption with XMPP?
As far as I can tell there are three totally different ways to do E2EE:
a)OTR : "[xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0364.h…](Not intended to be a current standard), or technical specification, as better (albeit, newer and less well tested) methods of end-to-end encryption exist for XMPP. "
b)OpenPGP: There are at least two different XEPs about it. XEP-0027 is obsolete, while XEP-0373 is "experimental" but hasn't been updated in almost three years.
c)OMEMO: "Experimental" and hasn't been updated in over two years.
Is there a way to do E2EE in XMPP which is neither deprecated nor experimental? What's the "Current stable" way to do it?

Just a heads-up that #Snikket #Android has been pulled by #Google from the store. We'll work on restoring it once we figure out their (as usual) nonsensical complaints. Apologies to everyone affected. Please look at #FDroid and free yourself.
Today's excuse for delisting yet another #XMPP app?

Funny. What's this then?? 👀

I don’t use the tablet UI in #Conversations_im. To be honest I hardly think about the fact that Conversations even has one.
However if you are using Conversations on a tablet and have suggestions for low hanging fruit / quality of life improvements I’m happy to implement them.
Recently someone suggested using the chat title as the activity title. (Apparently the highlighted chat is not enough of an indication of what chat you are currently in.)
Our iOS app got banned from the Chinese appstore because it is able to influence public opinion or is "Capable of Social Mobilization".
See our blog post for details: monal-im.org/post/00010-ios-ba…
iOS app banned from chinese appstore
Some may have predicted it, but now it happened: the chinese government banned Monal from the chinese appstore. Below is the complete email we got from Apple regarding this ban.Thilo Molitor (Monal)
Gerade gesehen:
Die #XMPP App #monocleschat ist über das Osterwochenende im Play Store zum reduzierten Preis von 0,99€ (anstatt 3,99€) erhältlich.
URL: play.google.com/store/apps/det…
Zur Vollständigkeit: Bei #fdroid und #codeberg ist sie weiterhin kostenfrei erhältlich.
Hintergrund: Die App monocles chat ist ein Fork von #Conversations und setzt einen Schwerpunkt auf intuitiver Bedienung. Sie ähnelt vom Aufbau noch stärker den typischen Messengern.

Wow!
@snikket_im just started their new federated instant messaging hosting service (based on #XMPP) for everyone.
This can really be a gamechanger for instant messaging.
You can bring your own domain name if you want to.
This means: for about 5.50€ (6$) a month (according to the website) you get ten instant messaging accounts for you and your family/friends using your personal domain name (not included).
And you are able to talk to every other XMPP user out there.

I actually already do something like this based on the #app SMS to URL forwarder (f-droid.org/packages/tech.bogo…). The URL corresponds to a very simple endpoint (a CGI written in Bash!) that receives the SMS details and resends it to a #XMPP MUC.
My use case is that I have a mobile phone with an overseas SIM card that I keep at home while I want to know when it receives a SMS.
So having this functionality as part of #Conversations_im would be great.

I just read a review of Beeper¹ and I’m now thinking about SMS integration into #Conversations_im in the form of forwarding (mirroring) your SMS to your other #XMPP clients. (For example your desktop client or a tablet that runs Conversations but doesn’t have a SIM card.)
Obviously this would need buy in from at least one desktop client to display forwarded messages (@gajim, @dino).
Do you think this is something you would use?

Beeper couldn’t bring iMessage to Android — but it can still make a great chat app
After taking on Apple, Beeper has returned to its original goal of building a chat app for Android that encompasses messages from social platforms and your RCS / SMS service.Emma Roth (The Verge)

Google had accepted a version of #Conversations_im with address book integration that explicitly asks the user for consent to process the contact list locally on their device before requesting contacts permission. Our privacy policy included explicit wording w.r.t. local processing of the contact list.
However it’s unthinkable for Google that someone would request contacts permission and then not upload them. A few days later they changed their mind and threatened to remove the app again.

Samozřejmě to chce trošku pročíst základní informace na profanity-im.github.io/guide/0… a potom si vygenerovat svůj OMEMO a důvěřovat OMEMO klíčům od lidí, se kterými si chci šifrovaně psát. Ale během 10 minut jsem měl vše nastaveno.

I checked the @gajim issue tracker for PKIX over Secure HTTP (POSH) support and it looks like it was implemented already 5 years ago: dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/is…
But I can't find the setting in the current #Gajim version and didn't managed to connect to my #xmpp server so far which uses "PKIX over Secure HTTP" for ssl verification.
#followerpower, any ideas?
