#YunoHost devs are testing #Prosody as #xmpp #jabber replacement for metronome to get better integration with the system and better compliance with jabber standards. Also new default features as A/V calls.

It's on early development, without ETA!!

great news IMO 👌

pretty much the best messenger around!

I've been using it (and #prosody) to connect all my family over my personal server for a decade now.

And there's no company involved that can read our chats or store our photos.

I set up #Prosody last weekend, and I haven't checked file uploads yet. The setup was incredibly simple, and resource usage is next to nothing. Added #Biboumi to make it function as my #IRC bouncer too, and it works like a charm!

This leads me to believe that even the current state of XMPP is already beats Matrix by a wide margin. Its easier, less resource hungry, faster, and there are already multiple good server and client implementations available.

Probably #Prosody has some problems related to Message Archive Management (including MUCs), my #XMPP server is facing some issues and downtime...

But I am confident I can improve or even fix this 🙂 My monitoring already alerted me a few times but a friendly user told me about the issues, too. That shows me this is a serious problem and I have to do something!

In case anyone is wondering about how to "update" a valid certificate from #letsencrypt that for some reason #prosody states is already expired, just run:

prosodyctl --root cert import /etc/letsencrypt/live

Assuming you have a valid certificate in place already configured for your domain. Saved me some headache!

#xmpp #selfhost

I want to enable file uploads on my #XMPP server. (XEP-0363). I'm running #prosody. The docs say "The domain specified in your Component line should ideally be a direct subdomain of your VirtualHost."

Does this mean I cannot use the same domain as my VirtualHost for this? So if my server runs on im.skelly.boo, uploads would have to be on a subdomain for that or a different subdomain entirely?
