having an amazing progress on getting rid of #telegram 😄
managed to move 27 conversations from telegram to #signal (I think one conversation was moved to #threema 😄)
About half of the people already had signal. The other half I spent time explaining all the things that are wrong with telegram.
The fact that people listen to me and then make the move, shows me that my friends, especially the ones who are not into tech, trust and respect me. One of my friends was really
impressed because she thought that all messengers are the same and just have different skins and buttons 😆😆😆
Only 1 friend left who has not (yet) downloaded #signal, but is going to 👌🏾
The family group was impossible to migrate. Apparently older people don't like change. Not really a surprise 😆 No idea how I'll handle that. Maybe my cousin will be a proxy or I'll have to use telegram every now and then (on desktop) to check the family group. OR I will just keep pestering every one when we meet IRL 😂 "We have to move to signal" and one of my uncles will be like "NO! I INSTALLED TELEGRAM BECAUSE LAST TIME YOU SAID WE HAVE TO LEAVE WHATSAPP. I WILL NOT DO THIS AGAIN" 😆😆😆😆😆
Other than that I have a handful of telegram bots. Most of them I have written myself. Nothing crazy though, almost all of them just wrap some APIs.
Since I've started to use #matrix since April, I'm now thinking about turning my telegram-bots into matrix-bots. I think it could be a fun project and would make telegram even more obsolete 😄
After many years away from the stage, I am back! It looks like I’m accepted to give a talk at the Matrix Conference (2024.matrix.org/) to present ✨ native simplified sliding sync ✨: how it differs from the first version of sliding sync (an experimental project implemented inside a proxy), how we’ve implemented it inside the Matrix Rust SDK etc. Gonna be fun!

The Matrix Conference is coming to Berlin, Germany on September 19–22, 2024.2024.matrix.org
Wow, #Element (the flagship #Matrix client) dropped support for #Firefox ESR in release 1.11.70. Or rather, they never supported it in the first place, only supporting "last two versions". The change causes a corrupted session for ESR users, and can't be reverted to fix it.
(Note that all Debian Stable users, by default, run Firefox ESR. This is kind of a big deal. ESR is always up to date on security, and gets new features once per year.)
They're managing the issue somewhat badly: github.com/element-hq/element-…
The best we've gotten so far, from a dev caught in the middle:
« Element devs follow the policy set out by people that manage them, they get an input but they do not control the policy. »
Nothing from their employer, whoever that is.

#FluffyChat v1.21.2 has been released 🚀 and is right now available in all AppStore (except F-Droid). This release brings several 🐞 bug fixes and a 🚨 security fix.
Rooms without a known last message are no longer jumping around in the room list and the last message in the room list now also decrypts when keys are coming afterwards.
Also a (security related) bug, where the app tried to load images from arbitrary urls, has been fixed.
I've tagged version 0.0.1 of #libcmatrix - a #matrix client library.
The project was initiated and developed by
Sadiq (gitlab.gnome.org/pksadiq) in order to add Matrix support to chatty (gitlab.gnome.org/World/Chatty) for @purism
It has been a bit 😴 over the past months but my recent interest in #unifiedpush derailed me and I had a look at the code base, cleaned up minor things and figured it might make sense to tag a release so here we go: source.puri.sm/Librem5/libcmat…
Thanks @devrtz for the reviews!

SMS/MMS, Matrix and (optionally) XMPP messaging via ModemManager, mmsd-tng, libcmatrix and libpurpleGitLab
Huge thanks to @mattj and @ralphm for their time today. I'm delighted to be getting acquainted with leadership at @xmpp – there are _so_ many things we can learn from each other and collaborate on.
It's free, open, federated communications versus the forces of centralization and proprietary walled gardens!

Good to hear about improving call reliability in calls. Honestly, this is my number one complaint and request for Matrix overall.
I have a family member with an account on my server, and a TURN/STUN server, and our calls have working video and audio both ways less than 50% of the time.
They keep begging me to use Facetime. 🤮

The Matrix Rust SDK now provides a room list that is sorted on the client-side instead of server-side, github.com/matrix-org/matrix-r….
It has landed in Element X iOS nightly and soon on Android.
I’m going to publish blog posts to explain all the technical details but it’s really pretty neat!

While @suraj_sloth is working on the #UnifiedPush connector side in #Chatty I got a chance to add the code for registering/unregistering #Matrix push gateways in #libcmatrix and Chatty (with this I can readily round trip messages up to the UP distributor):

Okay, this one might not go so well with people but this is a draft I've been sitting on since May.
Here is my opinions about the current going alternatives to Discord, especially #Matrix and #XMPP. We need to talk about this rather now than soon.

There's no good IM - Open IM is failing
blog.hellbeast.eu.orgThe opinion meters are through the roof
This blog is pretty opinionated but this one tops it all.
Why the hell is the stance of some @matrix and @element people that web browsers should implement 1) a client side matrix.to alternative or 2) redirect to matrix.to if no Matrix client is found AS A REQUIREMENT for clients to actually switch to using matrix: URIs. Wouldn't a first step be to actually REGISTER such a link handler with the OS instead of using some custom, undocumented element URI scheme. Supporting the link internally is just not enough for widespread adoption...
Recently, I learned that #Thunderbird supports #Matrix, so I immediately logged in with two of my accounts to try it out.
Me: Hm, all rooms from both accounts appear in one list. So confusing! Let's see whether I can hide some of them... 🧐
Thunderbird: There's a little grey X icon next to each room 
Me: Handy! Let's click on a couple of those. 😄
Thunderbird: OK, so you've just deleted all the chats ☺️

Reasons why Matrix can be better for diversity than closed platforms:
* Wide variety of implementations
* Public accountability
* Low cost
Our openness makes us stronger!
The CfP deadline for both the #Matrix conference and the Matrix dev room at FrOSCon is pretty soon. Please submit your talks now! Don't think about what to say yet, just yolo it! We don't have much time!

The conversation with @josh and @matthew about @matrix on @FLOSS_Weekly was fascinating and for once I would have enjoyed more than an hour. Matthew's frustration with trying to explain to legislators why #ChatControl and #OnlineSafetyBill are so misguided was especially striking - I do hope @EUCommission listen.

Hey, look! Our Flathub build is out now as well! flathub.org/apps/im.nheko.Nhek…
Now I just need to adapt the old app to eol-rebase to the new one...
How long does it take to forget, that you are supposed to post to the fediverse, when you did a release? Well, about a year I guess. Anyway, #Nheko 0.12.0 is out now! Took us a while (and there seem to be 800 commits in that release?!?), but our Qt6 port is finally out and with it exciting features like automatically deleting messages, ignoring users, intentional mentions and much, much more. Tbh, I forgot half the things we added and am always surprised that wasn't in 0.11.3 yet!
Anyway, grab the latest version of this #Matrix client here: github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/…
