I'm testing #PeerTube after a while for light integration with #Libervia and really pleased with what I see! Clean UI, lots of features, easy to use - great work by @Chocobozzz, @Framasoft, and the entire contributing team. Plus, there are a ton of plugins available! I'll be exploring the API to see if deeper integration is possible, it would be neat. #selfhosted#XMPP#videos

"We believe that the ideal online communication network is larger than any single organization, and that it should offer people freedom and choice. That’s why we built #Snikket on open standards (#XMPP) and everything we produce is open source, so that people can inspect it and run it themselves."
If you are curious and courageous, and run #Debian testing or unstable, you might like to try the latest snapshot of #Gajim by @gajim. It features message replies and message reactions.
Expect bugs! This is not a release version, but a snapshot. It's called "experimental" for a reason.

Likely a result of recent Slack shenanigans, the pressure on the matrix.org server is a good reminder of why I should just run my own #matrix instance. It also just adds to my appreciation of how much nicer it is to run and use #xmpp.
Disroot è un server con sede ad Amsterdam che offre anche servizi #XMPP con cancellazione di tutti i dati dopo un mese dall'archiviazione. Offre anche bridge per comunicare con Matrix e IRC.
Solo restan 4 cadenas por traducir, pero la verdad es que sin ningún dispositivo de Apple en la mano se hace muy difícil entender el contexto para hacer la traducción correcta de ciertas cadenas.
Aún así, logré que el Español (Latinoamérica) sea el cuarto lenguaje en alcanzar (casi) el 100% de su traducción 😊
Ojalá le sea de provecho a toda la comunidad de habla hispana! 🤗
Is #FacebookChat in #Thunderbird still working, or is this a remnant from when it was using #XMPP for it? I still see the option available, but last time I tried a while ago it was not working and I struggled really hard to remove it.
I'm early in my XMPP journey, but I'm currently working on a few chatbots to get a server to what I'm calling "Discord Parity"
As I understand XMPP and have my webhook bot configured is that the bot is a user that joins a room and simply is always passively listening.
Something I've noticed in the logs is that the bot receives the xml for all activity.
This includes the plaintext communications of people.
I haven't gotten to the step of setting up OMEMO encryption for the bot and this might quell my concerns for this bot which just forwards data into the chat.
More concerning is a planned interactive bot. Since it will be waiting for commands it must listen for messages, but I don't want it snarfling all messages up.
At this stage, I think our data is better stewarded and secured by us than Discord, but it's something I'm thinking through and would love to here from any XMPP folks in the fediverse.
@jeremiah You don't have to listen to commands in the same group-chat. For example the bot could be configured in a separate 1:1 chat and only post into a group-chat. Another neat option is to allow configuration via ad-hoc commands and forms. A recent example for such a bot can be seen here: https://slixfeed.woodpeckersnest.space/posts/slixfeed-news-bot/#xmpp#jabber
The one silver lining I see to #ChatControl and the #OnlineSafetyAct is that it gives a golden opportunity to try and persuade friends who don't care about free software / federation to migrate to #XMPP en masse.
If everyone is presented with a pop-up box saying "agree to have your chats scanned, or else", that suddenly gives a much more tangible way XMPP is better for them (instead of just being better for me).
