Just over three weeks remain until the 27th #XMPP Summit takes place in Brussels. If you’re planning to attend but haven’t registered yet, please make sure to add your name to the wiki by the end of this week: wiki.xmpp.org/web/Conferences/…
If you’re an XMPP developer or spec author and weren’t planning to attend, I’d strongly encourage you to reconsider
For those who can’t make it to Brussels but will be in Berlin on Wednesday, February 12th, we’ll be discussing the Summit at that week’s XMPP Meetup
You can now add hashtags to your #xmpp / #jabber channels on search.jabber.network! Just add a series of hashtags to the end of your channel's description.
Note that we maintain an allowlist of tags here: search.jabber.network/tags/ Tags which are not on that list are ignored.
Suggest new tags we should add/allow in the replies to this thread!
This release also marks the implementation of a feature people have been asking since forever: Search #xmpp / #jabber channels by language. You can now do that!
To search for all channels in french, you could type "lang:fr" in the search bar. Like this: search.jabber.network/search?q…
"lang:foo" can be combined with other search terms.
More information on how to search by language is found in the FAQ: search.jabber.network/docs/faq
"lang:fr" - search.jabber.network
Search for public Jabber channels matching lang:fr on search.jabber.network.search.jabber.network

Thanks to @VishnuSanal, #Prav is on Google Play Store now. It requires a 2-week testing period before being open to public downloads. Right now, only authorized testers can test it.
If you are interested in testing, please share your Gmail address with us.
On the other hand, the app is free to download from #Fdroid. Please remember that the service is still in public beta.
Stay tuned!
So, you're using decentralized non-corporate-owned social media because you don't want your online identity and activity tracked and held by some corporation, and even possibly a government-influenced owner (TikTok?).
I've opened an #XMPP (#Jabber) messaging server, which is based on the same principles as whatever application you are reading this on. XMPP is completely decentralized, open source, free, and volunteer run.
Also, neither member identity nor messages are stored on the server. There is no centralized control over the network. You sign up by first choosing a server. Your ID looks like an ActivityPub ID (example: support@chat.between-us.online).
Besides end-to-end message encryption, there's optional #OMEMO on-device encryption. No centralized messaging app (other than Signal) offers an encryption option this strong. There's video calling, file transfer, and both public and private chat rooms/groups. There are many messaging applications available for all operating systems.
You provide no personally identifiable information when you sign up, not even an email address. You only pick your ID and provide a password (which cannot be changed or recovered as the server does not keep identity information, so don't lose it and be sure it can't be guessed). If you delete your account, through the messaging app, there is no record of your account having existed on the server.
If interested, you can sign up on the messaging application (use chat.between-us.online as the server) or via the website at between-us.online, which also provides additional information about XMPP and how to use it.
A note about #Matrix. Don't @ me about Matrix. This message is only to announce an XMPP (Jabber) server option. I am not advocating XMPP over Matrix. I use Matrix as well. It ticks all the same boxes. This is just an announcement about an XMPP server.

There are sometimes discussions about an end-to-end encrypted private social media e-mail chat network 🤯 Basically you could follow delta chat profiles and subscribe and probably react to their encrypted broadcasts ....
This and many other discussions are the "humus" on which #deltachat evolves and, for example, became a super-app: Android 1.50.3 spearheads direct #webxdc app picking via the "attach" chat action. Actually #cheogram and #monocles, both #xmpp messengers, released this first!
🎉 Happy to announce that my talk "A Universal and Stable API to Everything: XMPP" at FOSDEM has been accepted! 🎉
I'll explore a new way of seeing XMPP and how it can achieve things quickly and simply when used as a coding interface. I’ll also discuss the work of the XMPP Standards Foundation and why having many XEPs isn’t a bad thing.
📍 See you at FOSDEM 1 & 2 February 2025 at Real-Time Lounge.

I’m slowing starting to think about what a 10 year anniversary update to my "The State of Mobile XMPP in 2016"¹ would look like.
It’s interesting what parts of the article are still relevant today (mostly how push works and how that impacts battery drain) while other parts are seemingly irrelevant. Yes, #XMPP works on mobile phones. Obviously. That’s how the overwhelming majority (⅔) of users uses XMPP².

The State of Mobile XMPP in 2016
An essay about the state of XMPP as a protocol for instant messaging, clearing up common misconceptions about reliabilty, battery-consumption, push and end-to-end encryption.gultsch.de
I installed #Signal and #Conversations_im on a clean install of #GrapheneOS on my Pixel 4a and measured the battery impact. The results are shocking!
Both messengers had only one contact: my regular phone.
I used my regular phone to send messages to the Pixel 4a (which was not used for anything else over the course of the experiment).
I always sent the same message via Signal and #XMPP (mixing up which app went first). In total I sent ~32 messages in intervals of 10mins to a few hours.
#JohanaBhuiyan suggests to #autoDelete messages and I agree with her.

While this is not a "hard" security measure and might lead to a false sense of security, it is an easy and effective method of #dataHygiene.
I wonder, if any #Jabber clients have this feature?

Should #Conversations_im add stun.conversations.im as a fallback for #XMPP servers missing XEP-0215: External Service Discovery?
I’ve hesitated to add anything resembling "calling home" (no update checker, no metrics).
However, the main goal here wouldn’t be improving A/V call success (though it helps) but making P2P file transfers more reliable. Many servers still lack HTTP Upload, and the refactored Jingle File Transfer would benefit greatly from a fallback STUN server.

Oha, das ist provokativ: Dieser Blogartikel sagt:
- Nutzt kein #PGP / #GPG
- Nutzt kein #XMPP + OMEMO
- Nutzt kein #Matrix (im Sinne: verlasst euch nicht auf die Verschlüsselung)
- E-Mails verschlüsseln ist sinnlos
Ich kenne den Autor nicht und würde ihn nicht erwähnen, würde der Artikel nicht in ernstzunehmenden ITSec-Newslettern zitiert

Hello o/ I am excited to announce Bechamel a collective around the software knows as Guix (which most people use through the Gnu channel of Guix)
Bechamel is something I started as a much easier way for people to contribute to a guix channel (no emailing patches, workflow not built around Emacs, xmpp used instead of irc). It also aims to be a more private and safes space to contribute to Guix things (like using the JoinJabber CoC and the soon the Cooperative Software Development Guidelines) among other things. Rationale: codeberg.org/Guix_Bechamel/col…
There are also some other plans including tackling the long-standing accessibility problems in Guix, adding pilul support to guix, rust/python build system improvements and much improved and updated support for xmpp things. Hopefully you are going to see me post a lot more about it from now on :)
At the moment it has updated Gajim the XMPP client to 1.9.5 which brings around 2 years of updates. It also has started having some extensive practical documentation around Guix. And some other things like cerca the forum software.

Gajim is currently migrating from GTK3 to GTK4. 🔧 GTK is Gajim's user interface toolkit. It provides building blocks, like windows, buttons and labels. 🧩
Version 4 of this toolkit brings performance improvements to Gajim, e.g. faster rendering of user interface elements. 💨
Additionally, switching to GTK4 allows Gajim to use newer widgets, like nice drop downs.
Here is a quick peek at a new group chat "@ mention" widget. 😎
Stay tuned!

Just published a blog post on #Convo, my #XMPP chat app for #KaiOS 
badrihippo.thekambattu.rocks/c…
It's basically a rehashing of the README and #Liberapay page with a few added plugs for KaiOS but I suspect it still took me longer to write than the last actual feature I added to the app so go figure 🤷🏾
Just "released" the first usable version of #Convo, an #XMPP messaging app for #KaiOS and #JioPhone feature phones! 
git.disroot.org/badrihippo/con…
I was hoping to release a more complete version as 1.0, but that's taking a while, and people are already starting to use it as it is (especially with the impending shuttering of #WhatsApp on KaiOS) so I decided to get this out right away 📦
I've also submitted to the #BananaStore, so hopefully it should be out there soon 🍌
