Absolutely nobody knows what an XMPP address is, so just go ahead and call it a:
#XMPP #Conversations_im #Jabber
conversations_im
Heute ist #DiDay
Der Digital Independence Day ist eine tolle Initiative, deren Werte wir zu 100% teilen. Die Empfehlung für Signal ist allerdings ein Schritt in die falsche Richtung und treibt Nutzer von einem geschlossenen System in ein anderes.
Zum Glück gibt es auch Wechselrezepte für die Independent Messaging Apps #Quicksy, #Monal und #Conversations_im, die wirkliche Souveränität bieten.
Ein Wechsel zu Quicksy ist genauso einfach wie ein Wechsel zu Signal.

#Conversations_im is now available for free on Google Play until August 18th.
Whenever there is a conference with a strong #XMPP presence, I like to make the app available for free to make it easier for attendees to install the app and give XMPP a shot.
I'm attending #FOSSY and #FrOSCon this weekend and next.

Nuevo server uruguayo de mensajería XMPP.
Si bien está funcionando desde el 1 de noviembre, es la primera vez que le "doy pa delante" aquí, ya que considero que está lo suficientemente "maduro" como para dejarlo crecer.

Monocles, a #Conversations_im fork, is now making heavy use of LLM-generated code. Including its cryptography.
Meanwhile it hasn't backported critical security fixes that landed in Conversations (and other forks) over a year ago.
Use this information however you like.
In other news: Conversations is currently free of charge on both F-Droid and Google Play.

We noticed that support for FCM (Google) push notifications in #Conversations_im was broken after an update to Play Services that rolled out over the last couple of weeks.
While Conversations usually tries to stay open in the background and connected to its #XMPP server, these push notifications can act as a fallback on some devices that employ aggressive “power saving” techniques.
This has been fixed and submitted for review, but review times these days are 2-3 weeks.
Conversations is now permanently available for free on Google Play.
Google doesn’t deserve me and my money anymore.
