XMPP is great, drop in replacement for discord. Movim and Cheogram have some unique benefits like an encrypted Twitter (Movim lets you access its features with an external XMPP account so your info stays together even if the social media site part is only accessible in browser) and a phone + SMS gateway respectively. Phone gateway can be tricky to set up depending on what providers are available in your region but it’s worth it for obvious professional and personal reasons. Like getting calls on laptop when your damn phone is off while running or hiking, broken, under your ass asleep, etc. I use both of those daily.
More reliable than Matrix IMO since I don’t rate the key backup system or the clients of the latter highly even tho my main concern is the long-term dependency of the project on western govts vs the truly international and mature xmpp ecosystem. Using backup files is really not that hard IMO. I have never not had Matrix break, server or client, shit is always breaking agaauahagah just happened 4 days ago ans today. Just basic shit like unverifying for no discernible reason and breaking backups
Delta Chat feels beta but it’s quite well made, the beta feel is from it relying on email under the hood, not suitable for group chats larger than, say, 50 people who are closely affiliated. No real moderation features. It’s actually an awesome conventional email client. I figure everyone has some version of this infinite mail combo but I make tutanota emails, tutanota is not compatible with other email clients its just to make other emails compatible with IMAP bc it has a code based recovery system. The Arcane Chat app makes it easy to juggle lots of the resulting accounts on there. Custom notifications for everything which IMO is super important bc who wants to look at their phone all the time, get the info via sound
On both Delta and XMPP I mostly just do collaboration with groups of under 4 dozen people and bots for RSS and bridges to other chat services. Delta is reliable if you make an offline command while hiking as soon as you have an idea, and then reconnect to a cell tower. That kind of blend of syncing and offline access since for security it’s extremely device-based
Also the webxdc apps are exciting but rudimentary, impressive for how few devs there are involved. The timetracker and the realtime collaborative editor are actually a daily usage thing for me since they can be Android launcher shortcuts or be kept open as full windows external to Delta Chat on desktop. They’re technically in Cheogram but only that one client so there’s no XMPP client ready to be compatible with the apps desktop side AFAIK.
I should really write a proper guide for this. It’s not that complicated, but the resources are spread out a bit and the devs have zero marketing skillz
When you’re making soulless reply guy accounts and inciting random people, do you ever consider what it says to others about your life and interests?
In another post I also instructed Signal and Matrix plebs on how to set up UnifiedPush with XMPP. So long as there are developers and useful groups e.g. the Dbzer0 piracy signal group, it will have its uses, just like knowing how to run discord in a PWA etc etc. You’re the one being gloomy

Oh god you don’t want to know, it was this dude arguing abt stuff solely from the perspective of people who go to furry conventions (im not being glib this is seriously what he used to reason abt which messenger is best), trying to get furries to stop using Telegram and switch to Signal. I can’t believe people take that guy seriously. I saw him get on an alt pretending to be his furry wife to go “grrrr back off” at people in Github threads who tried to point out issues with Signal or problems with his arguments against using XMPP.
My overarching issue is that Delta Chat and XMPP and the only ones using proper fucking W3C standards like Lemmy but people want to go mucking about with stuff dependent on US fed funding. Why do we only get offended at Firefox taking shady NGO funding? They’re all that bad and switching to the EU won’t fix anything
Yes I thought it was interesting that I got browbeaten by stuck up IT guys both on here and Xiaohongshu about not using Windows as a server and insisting TLS encryption is fine (when in modern scenarios its like locking your car door but leaving your windows open lol)
I guess even in posting heaven there is strife. Good. Love me strife

2·1 day agoI just thought he dipped I don’t always check what’s up with the community of the software I’m using is about unless I am deploying it. (Didn’t even realize Mull’s dev Divested Computing Group (which was more like Divested Computing One Really Industrious Fellow it turns out) shut down for like a month so I am trying to set up more notifications.) My mobile browser is barely even a part of my workflow. I appreciate you telling me because a lot of creepy things happen to privacy researchers!!! And then people just forget!!!
