Whining about MS Windows

The situation of #Jabber on #MSWindows is dissatisfactory. Some people do understandably prefer a proper application over the web browser. Then there are two half-baked options:

#Dino by @dino: Unofficial, outdated build. No message reactions, no message replies, no audio widget for voice messages, AFAIK no MUC-MAM and no tray icon.

#Gajim by @gajim: Official build, even in the MS store, only slightly outdated, but no A/V calls, AFAIK no tray icon.

From the article: "These days, you might know Gavin Newsom as the latest Bay Area white guy to start a podcast. In his spare time, however, he’s the Governor of California.

"In both of these capacities, the historically LGBT-friendly lawmaker has arguably been taking steps, if not leaps and bounds, towards a more reactionary, hostile political line. Anti-trans lawmakers and activists have taken notice, and it’s emboldened them to push their gender extremist agenda onto the masses of one of the country’s most liberal states.

"Last month, Newsom came under fire for hosting far-right extremist Charlie Kirk on an episode of his podcast, “This is Gavin Newsom,” where he said he “completely aligns” with some of Kirk’s views on trans athletes. This week, the Governor was cited no fewer than eight times by anti-trans lawmakers and advocates in a committee hearing on California’s sports bills. If passed, the laws would require schools and the state’s governing sports body to discriminate against transgender athletes."

California Republicans Cite Gavin Newsom In Trans Athlete Ban HearingErin In The Morning

Was having issues with #Signal notifications again, so I set my mom up with #Quicksy #XMPP as a backup messenger in case she can't get hold of me on Signal. I'm still using #Conversations, but talking her thru setting up Quicksy was straight forward and simple.

I'll probably go down and set up #Dino on her desktop PC sometime tomorrow so she has something she can use on her PC.

Thanks to @daniel for all his hard work on both Conversations, Quicksy and XMPP, 🙂

Hi, #Debian #XMPP team member here, and very likely the person who uploaded #Dino and #Gajim indirectly to your Mint distro 🙂

I'm using both Dino and Gajim on a daily base and they are pretty stable for me. Dino always crashes after disabling an account (but how often do you do that 🙂) and Gajim almost never crashes for me.

Note, that both #Jabber clients have debug options. Maybe you can find out, what's wrong?

Getting started with XMPP/Jabber and PGP for federated, encrypted messaging

This is a short thread where I explain how I started using the XMPP protocol and PGP encryption for secure messaging. I am not a security expert, but I am a mathematician and I am confortable with the Linux command line. This guide is for people who want to use PGP for secure messaging easily. You will need to be okay with typing commands into the Linux command line in order to do this, but I will tell you exactly what to enter.

Part 1: XMPP

Mastodon is like email, but for social media. You sign up for an account with a server, and then you can talk with any other accounts that are signed up on other servers, as long as your servers are getting along. (No one wants emails from the sketchy spam server, and we want to be able to choose between Yahoo, Gmail, etc.) XMPP (a.k.a. Jabber) is the same thing for text messaging.

Just like signing up for an email/Mastodon account, you need to sign up for an account. You can find a list of servers at list.jabber.at/ and will probably at least need to provide an email addess when making an account.

Once you have made an account, you need a client. On Linux, I've been having a good time using Dino (dino.im/). You can then enter your account name and password to log into your XMPP account and start chatting! There are both public rooms and you can also message directly with your friends.

Remember their names.

These are the Democrats who sold YOU out to a fascist would-be dictator. These are the cowards who rolled over on their constituents without a fight.

They are counting on you to forget them. They are betting that you'll forget what they've done and that you won't primary them.

Remember their fucking names. And get these cowards out of office.

My 10 yo nephew preferred Dino over Discord :) So, Dino it is!

He told me "It works super well! It is better than Discord!" "😍" "With Discord I had connection issues" (but I guess he was lost in the interface)

I am now tied to #xmpp, thanks @dino ;)
