Telegram, the cloud-based freemium chat, has now implemented strict rate limiting for users of alternative clients, VPNs and virtual phone numbers.
Clients like Nekogram, Nagram, Cherrygram and Unigram may show transmission delays or errors.
If your client had recently become slower, disable the VPN and use a real number.

Shit happens! No one should be judged.
But, can one do better?
Maybe there could be a better user guiding for new registrations in #Matrix #Apps (#Element, #ElementX) to give a better choise for #Homeservers instead to lead people always to matrix.org.

***Attention! If you miss MSN/Windows Live Messenger, AIM, and/or ICQ, this is for you! If you use a screen reader and want a 100% accessible messenger client, this is also for you.*
This works with Windows XPthrough 11, and I'm logged into it as I write! It's called Escargot, and it revives Windows Live/MSN Messenger. This is the original software, but it has been patched so that it connects to the escargot.chat server and not the Microsoft one. It is 100% free and accessible with NVDA and I'm sure JAWS as well. They also have projects for AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) and ICQ, including for Android and IOS, and are working on a web client for MSN. (I don't know if AIM or ICQ are accessible with screen readers, as I have never tried them). Anyway, if you're over twenty-one (my personal request), have read my profile here, and wish to add me, I am dandylover1@escargot.chat. You can find everything here.
Note: If you already have Windows Live/MSN Messenger on your system, you will still need to download their version and create an account. Your Microsoft, MSN, or Hotmail one won't work for signing in. Also, remember to click on RUN_AFTER_INSTALL.exe, in order to patch the program to the Escargot server.

#ElementX nutze ich schon länger parallel zu #Element für meine Chats.
Nun habe ich aber das neue #SchildiChat Next ausprobiert.
Es basiert auch auf ElementX, hat aber #Spaces integriert. Das gefällt mir sehr gut. Damit lassen sich z.B. Chaträume übersichtlich ordnen.
#Matrix ist für mich nach wie vor ne gute Sache. Ich würde es auch WhatsApp-Wechslern eher empfehlen als #Signal ... vor allem auch, weil man sich damit nicht vom Smartphone abhängig macht.

if I where to setup a new @matrix@mastodon.matrix.org which server software is nicer to work with?
Synapse Or Conduit?
synapse seemingly has the pro in terms of support for tools such as synapse admin: github.com/Awesome-Technologie…
and the ability to use oauth and handle user management using solutions such as authentik.
while conduit seems to be more resource efficient and better in terms of speed?

Finally have my Prosody server all compliant!
I had an epiphany last night about something in the nginx config and after sorting that, all the optional XEP listed also pass!
Now to convince wife and kids to use it for our group chat... they really don't want to install any more apps, because I'm "being difficult" because they already use whatsapp 😑
The main reason I'm impressed with it over matrix, is reliable notifications. It just works. So far, anyway.
Thank you to the people that replied to my post last week suggesting I try xmpp after the matrix server we used shut down. I had written it off as an old platform for nerds, but it's... actually really good ❤️
