As an aficionado of #tango #dance, music, and lyrics, and also a die-hard #Jabber user, I'm happy about this new #XMPP #standard of today:

XEP-0512: XMPP as Interpretive Dance

https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0512.html

I do, however, feel the need for a #protocol #bridge, as the #XEP relies on 4/4, while tango is, as everybody knows, 2/4 (el famoso "dos por cuatro"). Time for #slidge "slango" or "tangidge" maybe?

@thewhalecc

"Unlike other secure messaging solutions, qTox does not require you to be a computer programmer to use it."

Because #Jabber/#XMPP would require a CS master degree? 🤦 Most of my non-techie friends and even the elderly of my family use it without problems.

Anyway, added qTox to my IM chart 🙂

@gajim

#Gajim #Jabber #XMPP

@IceWolf @skyweird @gajim

Even with your proposal, a #Jabber client still can just ignore the name in the message and do whatever they want 🤷

I assume, that it depends on the clients DB structure.
Do I have only a simple JID ⇒ nickname table?
Or is it a more complex (JID, datetime) ⇒ nickname table?
Or do I even attach the nickname to every single message?

Changing the #XMPProtocol wouldn't help much.

How hard is it to propose an #XMPP XEP?

Right now it seems name changes are applied retroactively to past messages, or at least Gajim does it that way. This means we can't use our display name to indicate who is talking.

@skyweird::gryphon says that didn't used to be the case when they were using XMPP back in the day? Which means someone came along and fucking changed the semantics of namechanges out from under everyone? (Which by the way, over in Matrix land they're trying to do /exactly/ that. There's a setting to retroactively apply name changes in Element now. It's /on by default/ IIRC. I bet one day they'll remove it.)

We need a way to embed your name into the message itself. That embedded name overrides whatever your global/per-room display name is. Singlets can leave it off and have their retroactive name changes; we can enforce actually seeing our names like they should be.

(Of course it's possible to infer the correct name from the chat history, which is what clients did before, but that's only reliable as long as some jackass doesn't come along and change the semantics out from under you, nuking the names on years of chat history... embedding the name would be a very clear signal "HEY, KEEP THIS NAME".)

I could write up a spec myself if that'd be helpful!

@jackwilliambell

You might like to take a look into #Movim by @movim, if you are interested in the combination of secure chat, public chats, blogging, A/V calls etc.

I looked at Briar some years ago, because I was interested in packaging it for #Debian. IIRC, the protocol wasn't formally documented, so that people could implement it in the programming language of choice, like it is for #XMPP, Matrix etc. Only a Java reference implementation to copy from. I hope, it's better nowadays.

#Jabber

Our combined booth for #UnifiedPush and #XMPP at #CLT2026 went great. There was huge interest in UnifiedPush, and we successfully funneled some of that interest into XMPP as well.
I think it's a great combination since those projects are ideologically well-aligned, and we will likely do it again.

@testman

Matrix started around the time, when I started using #Jabber/#XMPP ≈ 2014. Jabber was not very good back then. Message loss was common, maybe because "XEP-0198: #StreamManagement" wasn't (correctly) implemented in (mobile) clients.

That's not an issue anymore, but that, together with loads of VC money for their pretty good marketing and a modern looking client ("Riot") gave them a temporary advantage over Jabber.

If #XMPP could be used to implement a modern chat platform, then why did #Matrix become the go-to chat platform for #FOSS community?

Was it just because Vector / Element looked a bit more like #Discord compared to other XMPP clients?

@Jerry @zash

If @xmpp_providers are using #Debian stable, they have to upgrade #ejabberd to 24.12-3+deb13u2. It has the relevant patch by @holger to ignore the certificate purpose. It's currently in "proposed-updates" (yeah, Debian lingo).

Time to find a different xmpp server...

Alt...

Screenshot of Firefox focused on the tab pointing to chatterboxtown.us. There's a welcome message at the top, but below that is the following message... "Registration is currently closed ATTENTION! The server version at this site is eventually going to be incompatatible with the XMPP network and updated XMPP apps (many are already experiencing this with the Conversations app not being able to log in). Unfortunately, attempts to migrate the data to the new server is failing. Unless the package maintainer of this software updates the repo for the operating system, I am strongly advising that you start planning on moving your accounts to a different service provider as this service will eventually fizzle out. The sooner I can see the active users drop to nothing, the sooner I can launch the updated server and maybe you might consider re-registering again. Do not register to this server unless you see version 26.02 or higher as the server version shown on the web page."

@xmpp_providers
My XMPP server, chat.between-us.online, fell off the Category A list about a week ago, and the reasons I see each day are inconsistent. I also can no longer connect with chat.xmpp-providers.org. I get "Could not authenticate remote servers". Other than this, my server seems to have no problems connecting to any other server, as far as I can tell.

It seems to have happened coincident with getting updated Let's Encrypt certificates.

Let's Encrypt no longer creates dual-use certificates; they dropped ClientAuth from their certificates. I tried switching to ZeroSSL certificates, but they too have dropped ClientAuth.

Is the certificate change coincidental, or do you know if there's another explanation?

If it is the certificates, what do I do? Prosody does not yet have an ability to serve different certificates for inbound and outbound server connections, and so I cannot present a certificate with ClientAuth any longer.

Here's what I've been working on this week: a Discord RPC server clone!

While I was planning and working on a revival of XMPP's User Gaming XEP, the problem I've encountered while doing so was that there would be very little adoption by programs due to its minuscule market share.

So, I thought: why not just pretend to be Discord to programs and then fetch their rich presence status that way! (none of this actually requires a Discord account, therefore no ToS or bans to worry about)

What's a good #xmpp app for apple iphone?

I'm using #conversations_im on android, but want to add someone on my server who exists in the apple world

Buem, para terminar la semana, nuestro ISP esta teniendo problemas en la zona, asi que #cyberdelia y nuestros servicios #XMPP y #Mumble estan offline hasta que los vuelvan a conectar con la civilización.

Question to a long time #xmpp #omemo users.
I have Monal client with omemo enabled. It was fine. Until I wanted to install a second client for my account, this time on my PC (Gajim).
Now I have 2 omemo sessions, which I trust each other.
The questions is,

1) why I can't still see the future messages in the second client (gajim), despite I trust my 2 sessions?
On monal I see everythyng, on Gajim just
"This message was encrypted with OMEMO, but not for your device."

2) Can I do something to start see the future messages without to bother every single contact in my list?

I'm testing #xmpp with #snikket today. It was straight forward to install the server. Like 10minutes. I was very impressed!!

But then the problem started… with #encryption key managment problem.

Basically I wanted to write to a #quicksy user (aka myself) and that didn't work because of some 'Aucun appareil pour qui chiffrer ce message n'a été trouvé. Recherche d'appareils en cours…'

I know that there is a lot of work to improve the situation. I'm open to report bugs, but I have no idea if it should be done in snikket, quicksy, gajim, kaidan …

@mindaugas

That's two issues: One is #security (Signal is good regarding #confidentiality and #integrity, but not necessarily #availability) and the other #digitalSovereignty, which calls for #federation.

My comment was about the chart by @AliceStollmeyer, titled "take back control". Signal is partially controlled by AWS, i.e. they can switch it off.

Not mentioning #Jabber/#XMPP among secure messaging apps is wrong, of course 🙂 Just don't take that site serious.

@AliceStollmeyer

Suggesting federated apps, like Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, Friendica, Peertube, and Loops for more #digitalSovereignty makes sense. Not only for the #EU, but for every country or #NGO.

Mentioning Signal, however, does not help. It's a centralized service on the Amazon cloud, also depending on Google. If DJT wants to shut it down, it's gone in a second.

Bettter suggest federated chat, like #Jabber/#XMPP. It's the fediverse of chat since 1999 🙂

Il y a quand même un truc qui me gène énormément quand je vois des libristes conseiller Signal, c'est que même si on passe le fait que c'est centralisé et basé aux États-Unis, c'est ouvertement hostile aux clients alternatifs utilisant leur serveurs (ce qui rend l'intérêt de faire un client alternatif quasi nul), cf. LibreSignal.

Pas sûr que les passerelles soient super bien vues non plus.

Alors bien sûr je ne suis pas neutre du tout (très impliqué avec XMPP).

Dé-GAFAMiser #1

> Mes solutions alternatives ¶

C'est suite au message d'@loevenbruck, l'auteur, qui annonçait son indépendance des GAFAM que je me suis lancé.

Aujourd'hui la quasi totalité des applications que j'utilise en remplacement sont installées sur un serveur d'application auto-hébergé, sauf Signal.

> Un serveur d'application #Yunohost ¶

J'ai choisi d'installer l'ensemble des applications sur Yunohost, le serveur d'application simplifié, dédié à l'auto-hébergement. Cette distribution basée sur Debian dispose d'un catalogue étoffé d'applications prêtes à l'installation.

J'ai commencé il y a 2 ans sur un micro-PC d'architecture AMD64, sur un microprocesseur N3000, puis j'ai basculé sur un micro-PC toujours en AMD64, sur un microprocesseur Intel de 11ème génération, i5-11320H, histoire d'être tranquille pour quelques années.

> Le nom de domaine ¶

J'utilise les services d'#OVH depuis de nombreuses années pour gérer les domaines et l'hébergement de sites personnels ou professionnels.

Quelle chance, la gestion de l'API de gestion de domaines d'OVH est disponible sur Yunohost. Elle permet de créer, éditer, supprimer les domaines et sous-domaines de presque tous les besoins des applications.

Nous reverrons le sujet avec Cryptpad.

> La stratégie d'utilisation des sous-domaines ¶

Après quelques essais, j'ai installé le catalogue d'applications sur apps.newan.net pour laisser le domaine principal disponible. Le serveur de messagerie électronique fournit donc des adresses en "@newan.net".

Puisque les applications #Prosody, qui gère le serveur de messagerie #XMPP, et #Mastodon, qui fournit le serveur #ActivityPub, ne sont pas mutuellement exclusives, elles sont toutes les deux installées sur le domaine principal.

En revanche le serveur de messagerie instantanée (mais pas seulement) #Matrix ne supporte pas la concurrence. Il est donc installé sur le sous-domaine matrix.newan.net, ce qui surcharge les adresses Matrix de ce sous-domaine.

Cette installation est le résultat d'échecs et de réussites sucessifs. Le serveur ActivityPub sur le premier micro-serveur tournait sur le logiciel #Pleroma, puisque je n'avais pas réussi à installer Mastodon. C'est au passage vers le serveur sur i5 série 11, que j'ai réussi à installer Mastodon.

De même, j'utilisais initialement le serveur XMPP #Métronome fourni par défaut avec Yunohost. Ce n'est que lorsque j'ai eu besoin d'installer le serveur de visio-conférence #Jitsi, que j'ai désintallé Métronome pour le remplacer par Prosody.

La suite sur https://eikan.newan.net/Libre.

Notifications and message counter are now correctly working in Spaces 🔔✨ Some other issues, related to performances and navigation were also fixed along the way 👀

There is also a totally new flow when adding a chatroom or answering an invite. Movim will try to know if the room you are joining is valid and gives you hints about it before adding it to your bookmarks ℹ️

In light of ntfy.sh becoming the latest den of slop code, I have stopped using it.

For UnifiedPush I am now using Conversations. There's something ironic about one messaging client (Element X) using another for its notifications. Now we need to get #IPv6 enabled on up.conversations.im.

Did you know that most Android #XMPP apps also work as a #UnifiedPush distributor and thus can easily replace apps like #ntfy (recently became vibe-coded) for this? Find our tutorial here: https://joinjabber.org/tutorials/service/unifiedpush/

Anyone speak #XMPP? I have a local #prosody server which has suddenly started to report everyone's presence as "not authorised", since I connected the Conversations Android client to it. Everyone can still send and receive messages, just not see presence information. Any ideas?

We will have a combined #XMPP and #UnifiedPush stand at #CLT2026 on March 28th and 29th. Come talk to us if you are curious about either! We will have merch for both, test devices, lots of advice, and I've even heard rumors about free Haribo.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@fediversereport/116178002926045553

That's exactly why having a standard that covers all the interactions, clients and servers is primordial.

https://connectedplaces.online/reports/fr156-share-where/

Movim "API" is XMPP, Mastodon API is Mastodon API, developped by Mastodon and for Mastodon. Only the servers to servers interactions are standardized and specified in ActivityPub.

And now, back to Spaces 👀

I use #IRC channels for e.g. #Debian but the feature set is pretty limited, compared to xmpp. I never considered really using #matrix as it felt slow and buggy in my tests.

Historically, events like Meta announcing ads in WhatsApp haven’t significantly impacted #Conversations_im download numbers. This time feels different. February saw double the installs of a typical month. It seems the sentiment against Big Tech is finally translating into action.

#DiDay #XMPP

Some of you may have experienced some authentication issues the past few days on https://mov.im/ 😬

I am currently testing the new scalable architecture. We are reaching -90% of RAM usage but there is some session management optimization that are still a bit unstable. This should be fixed in the upcoming days, and if everything is okay, merged in the main branch ✨

Uma pergunta para usuários brasileiros de XMPP ou que estão dispostos a usar um serviço de comunicação livre:

Pra você, qual a importância do seu provedor de mensagens estar no Brasil, em respeito a Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados?

What should i install first ?
and what exact server Software should i use/what do you recommend ?

As it seems getting XMPP work parallel on multiple devices, I guess I should add a section to my Carrd page that, like it already does for PGP (E-Mail encryption), lists my OMEMO fingerprints so people can validate them, if they really care. 😅

#XMPP

Hi #xmpp #devops #adminsys folks, I’m looking for a way to push #monitoring messages to an XMPP MUC room via a #webhook. I already have an Apprise instance that forwards these messages to an #IRC channel, but unfortunately, #Apprise no longer supports XMPP, and I’d like to avoid using a #bridge.

Any suggestions or tools that could #help? Thanks in advance!

@debacle

By the way, would you happen to know if the HTTP-based file/image/etc transfer is end-to-end encrypted like text is?

Tonight's Spaces status:
- Numerous stability fixes ✅
- Notifications are properly working ✅
- Admins can set admin/member role to user users ✅

There is still some notifications feature to be done... and stability improvement and I think I'll be good to merge a first preview of the Spaces in Movim 👀 Interested to try it out ?

I repeat that everything done so far works on a standard #ejabberd #XMPP server without any specific hack. It is just very basic MUC + Pubsub XMPP put together so it should work "out of the box" (minor a small config to declare where the Spaces are created) to work ✨

Stay tuned 😸!

@mathieui

So how does it work? The sender uploads the image to the sender's server, and the recipient fetches it directly from the sender's server, not proxied through the recipient's server?

I've heard talk of adding onion routing to #XMPP. Seems to me that this sort of direct fetching would defeat the purpose of onion routing…

@debacle

@debacle

So, #XMPP HTTP upload is not server-to-server like with email? Then yeah, that exposes the recipient's IP too. And that's on by default even in #Gajim. 😬

@debacle

HTTP upload? Isn't that how #XMPP sends pictures in chat? Even #Gajim and #Conversations will auto-download those.

I was under the impression those are stored-and-forwarded by the XMPP server, though, since most XMPP clients are behind NAT and can't directly communicate with each other.

Was I mistaken?

Just found out that #BeagleIM automatically fetches web links in messages and plays the page's video if there is one.

This is not acceptable behavior!!!

* It's annoying. There isn't any obvious way to stop the video.

* It's insecure. The linked page might attack vulnerabilities in Beagle's video player.

* It exposes the user's IP address to anyone who sends them a message, potentially physically endangering them.

Will uninstall and replace ASAP.

Other than that, some musings..

Your project looks very nice. Kudos! However, the past couple years I've probably seen a quadrillion instant messenger projects pass by. The screenshot on the website is "yet another familiar IM chat UI".

But if I just read your tagline of "Decentralized #P2P encrypted messaging" and I close my eyes a bit, I can picture 'universal messaging' and see something very powerful.

In #ActivityPub conceptual architecture this exists in theory, but the #fediverse diverges from that. In #XMPP and #Matrix protocol realms you hear people say "you can build any social networking use case with the protocol", but then all the documentation and discussions relate narrowly to IM and some of the hardwired abstractions assume IM (like Room in matrix).

With universal messaging I might be empowered with https://eventmodeling.org and https://eventcatalog.dev like solution design, using SDK's on top of a robust p2p protocol component. To model IM and more.

Les recordamos que nuestros servidores, además de proveer esta distinguida instancia , también aloja un servidor XMPP que es incluso, anterior a la instancia de Mastodon . Es de los primeros servicios que tuvimos en Undernet junto con el correo electrónico . XMPP es un sistema de mensajería federado y descentralizado , como Mastodon, donde cada servidor tiene cuentas, y puede agregar cuentas de otros servidores y asi chatear. Existen salas públicas y privadas a las que uno puede unirse o crearlas si no existen. Nuestro admin @gabriel ha hecho una recopilación de muchas de estas salas en su blog --> https://publicar.uy/salas-de-mensajeria-xmpp-en-espanol/ XMPP es un protocolo que existe desde fines de los 90s y se le han ido agregando cosas, porque es un protocolo modular. Hoy en día se pueden hacer hasta llamadas de audio y video , compartir imágenes , ubicación ... etc. Nuestro servidor al igual que Mastodon Uruguay, y todos los servicios de Undernet, están integramente alojados en Uruguay en forma autogestionada e independiente 🇺🇾 y tiene en total unas 300 cuentas registradas en los dos dominios que administramos que son @undernet.uy y @buzon.uy de las cuales se conectan diariamente unas 70+ . El servidor esta conectado con otros 600 servidores XMPP. Si no lo probaste, podes bajarte un cliente como Conversations, Monocles, Xabber para android, Snikket para iPhone o Gajim y Dino para Lunux e incluso clientes para terminal y registrar una cuenta en nuestro servidor u otros.

@pixelschubsi @orva Hi, I'm the author of https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/av_conferences.html . The spec is not abandoned at all, it's still WIP following change requested by XMPP council (notably working with a single Jingle session).

I have actually an experimental implementation in Libervia, with a component based on Galène SFU. I'll go back to that, but I'm working on many things, so it takes time.

Note that I'm also working on experimental remote desktop control feature.

#XMPP #av #calls #Libervia #SFU

It will be time to prove that Libervia is not the Hurd of XMPP 😀

Soon, soon.

#Libervia #XMPP #hurd

I'm finishing the implementation of contacts e2e encryption. This has been done in the context of the serverless metadata reduction grant (https://nlnet.nl/project/ServerlessXMPP/). As the name implies, it let you encrypt metadata on your contacts (name, groups, description), but can also be used to extend roster metadata.

On other fronts, we have talked about sealed sender at last summit (notably @daniel) and @mathieui made a great suggestion about onion routing in XMPP.

#Libervia #XMPP

Tonight's Spaces status:
- Invitations link, join request and request reply done ✅
- Space rooms changes (add/remove) synchronization done ✅
- Affiliations synchronisation between the Space and the Space rooms done ✅
- Basic notifications counter done ✅
- Basic messages exchanges done ✅

Already more than 100 files changed and +2500 lines added in the project! 🫣

Do you want to support me adding Spaces (and many other awesome features) in Movim? https://movim.eu/#fund ✨

This will be interesting to watch: https://www.process-one.net/blog/introducing-fluux-messenger-a-modern-xmpp-client-born-from-a-holiday-coding-session/

If they can succeed in pairing a solid client with ejabberd for a marketable pair, they might just give Matrix a run for their money.

Y'know what? I do not want a #mobile #phone.

What I **want** is phone services on my laptop. We're talking voice and video calls, messages, and equivalent answering/recording services.

We have all these possible via #XMPP, now, but none of them are easy to use.

So, sorry about Android, but I really do not want anyone to put the effort into fixing it. I won't back that. But I will back projects enabling me to use my current hardware instead of a pocket spy.
