So... #Signal and #Wire, which both have issues, but not #Matrix / #XMPP? And for video, 2 #YouTube front ends and a proprietary YouTube clone, but no direct mention of #Peertube? And for Translation, the proprietary #Deepl, but no mention of the local and #Privacy respecting #Firefox #translate
I appreciate the intent of this post, but the research is... outdated at best.

Some updates on my #Libervia work:
- Kicked off #email #gateway project (nlnet.nl/project/EmailXMPPgate…) using IMAP/STMP. Basic gateway should be coming soon.
- Preparing next major release: web frontend design & internal improvements in progress. The release will be *huge*.
- Started new desktop frontend; more details to follow.
- Aiming to resume blogging and weekly videos this week, if time allows.
- Targeting a Libervia-based service by the end of the year.
It just occurred to me that none of the classic #InstantMessaging systems are still running. #ICQ, #AOLInstantMessenger, #YahooMessenger, and #MSNMessenger are all gone. I have lost contact with all my old friends there. I doubt I'll ever hear from them again.
The #OpenSource, #federated competitor to these protocols, #XMPP, remains in operation and has outlived them all. So did #IRC, the protocol that arguably inspired them.
Proprietary software and protocols come and go, but #FOSS endures.
Reminder that #xmpp is a great alternative to signal/whatsapp especially for 1-1 chats and voice calls.
If you want to self host, try out snikket. They have paid hosting available too.
For Android users, Conversations is a fantastic client.
Of course, most people making noise about it all still want the convenience of a free service.
Movim 0.27 Lovas is finally there! 🎉
In this #Movim #release you'll find the first exciting video-conferencing features integrated with the help of the @nlnet funding. A big thanks to them for their precious support 😊 ❤️
The call flow is now completely integrated in the main window and an important refactoring was done both in the frontend part and the #XMPP Jingle stack.
You will also find several user interfaces fixes as well as a database reorganization.
⚠️ This version is also fixing a serious security issue that could cause remote-code execution under specific circumstances. We are inviting you to update as soon as possible.

During the Berlin XMPP sprint, some XMPP developers worked on message formatting. Previously, formatting was done using simple markup (e.g. *bold*), which sometimes leads to unintended formatting and is limited in functionality. We now decided to transmit formatting information outside of the normal text, with optional fallback to markup for legacy clients. We worked on improving the specification and on support in three different clients, including @dino.
We are pleased to announce that we got selected in another funding round by the EU’s NGI via the @NLnet Foundation @NGI0 Entrust Fund to work on some important features in Monal: nlnet.nl/project/Monal-IM-UI/
In short this consists of the following tasks (in no special order):
Implement Dialpad, Rewrite Chat UI, Implement Message Reactions, Rich Replies and Stickers, XSF work and a documentation of Monal's internals
Gajim 1.9.2 has been released 🚀

#Libervia se joint aux autres signataires de la lettre ouverte pour soutenir #NLnet/le programme #NGI qui se voient couper le financement pour 2025.
C'est grâce à ce programme que je peux travailler actuellement à plein temps sur le projet, et que nous avons pu implémenter:
- la passerelle #ActivityPub <=> #XMPP
- le chiffrement de bout en bout à l'état de l'art
- Les appels audio/video 1:1, contrôle à distance et conferences (travail en cours)
Thanks to gitlab.com/ab-amal and gitlab.com/Glitchyi we have a redesigned home page for diasp.in
