Today we are launching our very first campaign to help you to migrate from Discord to Movim ✨

We already worked on some new exciting features regarding audio and video calls (that will be announced soon) and more are coming in the upcoming weeks 👀

If you want to help us free more time and support us for all the work done on Movim a Supporter tier was on Patreon for the price of a Discord Nitro subscription, 3€/month 😸

Stay tuned and spread the good news around 📢

@openess Having used both, at the end of the day it comes down to your personal experience and what you are able to migrate your family to.
At some point I stayed on #matrix, but there is no specific reason why I would not use #xmpp again

Why don't you just try running it in parallel to you current matrix server and give it a try.

From what I read here, experience varies wildly.

How does XMPP work? I'm looking at Jabber's website and apparently some clients are both clients and servers at the same time or something? It's quite confusing...

Are spaces or multi-channel groups (like discord) a thing in xmpp? Which clients support that on iOS and Linux and etc?

Is Movim a client or a server or what?

Are groups hosted in the server of the user who created it like on Matrix or what?

Any easy tutorials I could send to my discord friends?

#XMPP #Jabber #Movim

I want to break a local community free from Signal, and I've been thinking about XMPP. In reading some analyses I found this gem:

https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/matrix-vs-xmpp/

I stopped using Signal because I just don't trust it. Why so many updates with no explanations? Is it so unstable and insecure that it needs them? Also, check out search results for running your own Signal server. Technically it's free software, but practically, good luck.

So I guess I need to figure out persistence and E2EE for XMPP, and land on a server and clients. I'm inclined towards ejabberd, because Erlang!

I'd welcome thoughts.

#xmpp #jabber #signal #matrix

@sortedetruc @transcendentempress
Pour Signal c'est pire que ça, tu as toujours besoin de l'appli officielle sur ton téléphone.
Avec des applis non-officielles, c'est peut-être différent et ton desktop peut être le « primary device », mais Signal n'a historiquement pas été très tolérant avec les client non-officiels.
Je suis biaisé vers #XMPP, si tu veux un compte je te conseille de regarder du côté de https://joinjabber.org/fr/docs/servers/personal/ ou https://providers.xmpp.net/

Since everyone is currently obsessed a little with messaging, here's a little reminder to all Chinwag users that you@chinwag.org is not just your fedi handle, but is also a valid Jabber ID.

Most messaging clients that support XMPP just need you to put in your address there and the same password you use here, and you're online.

Please feel free to reach out via a DM to this account if you have any issues and we'll do our best to help!

For mobile users we recommend Conversations on Android, or Monal on iOS. Both are known to work with Chinwag.

@openess

Both are free and federated, but #XMPP is much older (born as #Jabber in 1999) than Matrix (2014).

XMPP is an IETF standard, all extensions used nowadays are maintained by the independent @xmpp. Not sure about Matrix.

Both have multiple servers and clients. Both can be self-hosted, for both hosting services do exist. Both use very similar encryption schemes, derived from Signal.

Can't comment on Matrix, but I forced my non-tech friends and family to use Jabber.

(1/2)

Techie question..

I'm currently on #matrix and have been for a couple of years. I see people talk about #xmpp. Could some one give me a quick rundown of how they compare.

boosts appreciated

I'm interested in comparinsons relating to:
app and platform support
self hosting support
ability to pay someone for hosting
encryption level
general usability for "non techie" family and friends
community/political drama
comunication types supported (text/voip/sending files, and so on)

Pourquoi j’ai choisi d’offrir le service XMPP plutôt que Matrix (article en anglais).

@tapafon @ariadne then I guess the only good option is self-hosted #XMPP+#OMEMO and/or #PGP/MIME!

• Anything else is either a controlled opposition, honeypot, or just flatout marketing lies.

@tapafon @ariadne The whole "Metadata" discussion is for the most part FUD by Signal fans.

• OFC this doesn't mean I deny the problem.

  • But if you are concerned about said issue then you'd already only communicate with you own private self-hosted servers that are only reachable with a VPN over Tor.

The truth is that as of now there are no good options out there, unless you consider sending #PGP-encypted messages to a self-hosted, hidden ntfy.sh server to each other.

• I'd love to be wrong on that one, but so far #XMPP+#OMEMO & #PGP/MIME (both over #Tor) is the best practical option if you don't expect people to become unlicensed radio amateurs and illegally moonbounce their encrypted messages with WSJ…

@joeneXtra

I'm not sure, if a poll makes much sense, because it depends on preferences. The feature sets are different, the clients are different etc.

My own use cases are much better fulfilled by #Jabber/#XMPP, but others might prefer Delta or Matrix or Briar or Jami…

What is anno 2026 better for instant messaging? Think about the best combination of user experience/friendliness, privacy and security. I choose these two after researching decentralized Whatsapp/Signal alternatives.

#XMPP #DeltaChat #WhatsApp #Signal #IM #InstantMessaging #poll

WRT #Discord, there's an effectively unsolvable conundrum we can't really face, folks. We'd all like the high moral standards that are found in the #OpenSource community, when done right: nobody screwing each other over for their PII, and other forms of leverage (walled-garden lock-in). Geeks get this, normies don't. (This gulf is very hard to cross, IMHO, without resorting to actual educational curriculum explaining it in schools.)

But then we have conflicting desires: we *also* want the buttery smoothness to a secure messaging ecosystem - total convenience, total functionality, *complete with a level-playing-field, "Net Neutral" infrastructure to run it on*, with no lobbied government or tech-bro interference skewing the traffic rules (QOS Rules). Good luck with that one, without strong gov't control, and solid grassroots lobbying behind it.

Lets be honest: #Signal is so great *because tens of millions of dollars were charitably spent on it*. Moxie didn't do his genius work *for free*. Where are tens of millions of *more* dollars going to come from, to make a Discord alternative? Would that be nowhere? Look, there's no quick and easy answers to Discord enshittifying. I've looked at #XMPP, #Matrix, #Deltachat, #Discourse, #Flarum, #PHPBB, #Zulip, #Mattermost, etc. and *each has its warts*. You'll dislike each of them, for different reasons. Each paints itself into a different corner. *There were no tens of millions of dollars upfront, at an early design phase, overlooked by qualified Computer Scientists, to prevent this, in each and every case.* #IRC doesn't bear mention in this comparison. None is the perfect replacement or answer. *None had those tens of millions of dollars which Signal had.*

Alas, they don't stand a chance to be the all-singing, all-dancing solutions that the techbros can finance, *along with their predictable, rotten lack of a moral compass to accompany the slickness.* Every non-geek teenager will side with the techbros, owing to 1) convenience, and 2) that's where their friends are, *which mean the world to a teenager*.

So in summary, we are doomed by our own psychological limitations, as a demographic. The psychological predators - the techbros - can't help but prey on the normies, and the normies can't help but turn to the predators, who at least offer convenience, if no other thing. And the geeks who have a moral compass stand in the middle, ignored by-and-large, feeling anxious and powerless, not having any tens of millions of dollars behind their altruism.

#CassandraSyndrome #actuallyAutistic @autistics

@Tamtam

While #Jabber/#XMPP has not the same #confidentiality as Signal (e.g. more meta data is stored on the server; and current #OMEMO 1 is not as good as, OMEMO 2, which unfortunately is not widely implemented), but it's close enough for me.

The advantages of #federation and #digitalSovereignty outweight those minor problems. YMMV.

Moxie Marlinspikes:"One of the controversial things we did with Signal early on was to build it as an unfederated service. Nothing about any of the protocols we’ve developed requires centralization; it’s entirely possible to build a federated Signal Protocol-based messenger, but I no longer believe that it is possible to build a competitive federated messenger at all."
So after reading this I thought, well, everything that we like about signal can be turned into a federated messenger. Why is nobody doing it?
I gave me at least a little bit of hope that someone or, some group will.
I believe the need for privacy is getting more urgent by the minute.. The situation has changed quite a bit, since that decision at signals was made. We need a signal -quality messenger as part of the fediverse

#Jabber/#XMPP ist das #Fediverse des #InstantMessaging und das schon seit 1999 🙂

Der #Datenschutz hängt in erster Linie von Deiner Instanz ab und von den Instanzen Deiner Kontakte, ähnlich wie bei #Mastodon und Co.

Aber i.d.R. werden alle #Chat-Nachrichten Ende-zu-Ende verschlüsselt (#OMEMO, das gleiche Verfahren wie bei Signal), sodaß zumindest der Nachrichteninhalt für Server-Admins geheim bleibt. Ob Du verschlüsselst oder nicht, bleibt Dir überlassen.

@Oldine @Wiebke_Worm

Beides jedoch auch zentrale Lösungen. D.h. man hat hier auch eine Abhängigkeit zu einem Unternehmen / Organisation.

Es gibt auch dezentrale Lösungen, ähnlich wie hier und wie man es von E-Mail kennt.

Hier mal ein Beispiel zum einlesen:
https://anoxinon.media/blog/xmpp1/

#XMPP #jabber

@kfdm @swetland

I'm not aware of a single static #Jabber/#XMPP server. Somebody needs to write such a thing!

Both #ejabberd by @ejabberd and #prosody by @prosodyim are pretty easy to install and maintain. Esp. if using distro packages.

If docker is an option, there is #snikket by @snikket_im, a pre-configured prosody.

Maybe check #openfire by @news or #tigase by @tigase? Never tried them.

Was muss ich in ejabberd eigentlich konfigurieren, damit ich bei https://compliance.conversations.im/server/xmpp.molthagen.de/ einen grünen Haken bei "XEP-0313: Message Archive Management (extended usage)" bekomme?

Ich habe das bis jetzt nicht herausfinden können...

Das ist der letzte grüne Haken, der mir noch fehlt...

#XMPP #ejabberd

@kfdm @swetland

People want message correction, message reactions, replies, sending pictures, moderation (removal of inappropriate messages) etc.

Which is well supported by #Jabber/#XMPP nowadays, but not (yet) by IRC 🙂

@swetland Probably would take longer but I think developers (myself VERY much included) are bad at estimating 😆

I've often wondered if #irc or #xmpp could have been Slack/Discord with better clients.
In some ways, an irc client with a built in pastebin/imagebin is pretty close
(I am sure someone will correct my over simplification 🙃)

It’s been almost a decade since I wrote a blog post on the State of Mobile XMPP in 2016. Time to start working on an update.

The situation has only improved since then, and #XMPP has matured into a solid, feature-rich protocol for federated instant messaging

https://gultsch.de/posts/the-state-of-mobile-xmpp-in-2016/

@csolisr

Let's calculate the intersection:

"free" ∩ "federated" ∩ "large groups" = { #Jabber/#XMPP, Matrix }

With free = "free software incl. realistic self-hosting option",
federated = "no need to create an account on different instances" and
large groups = "includes administration and moderation tools".

More options:

@zeank @goaty

Don't hold your breath, but the future is bright 🙂

Some people are working on so-called "spaces", i.e. multiple rooms, that can be administered together. E.g. same users and permissions for all rooms in a space.

https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0503.html

The terminology feels strange to me. To me multiple rooms are not a "#space", but a "#flat" or a "#palace", depending on number of rooms 🤷

#Jabber #XMPP

trying to figure out if a MUC in XMPP can have multiple rooms/channels or not and not finding consistent information, nor am i finding how to do so in gajim. anyone able to direct me properly?

#xmpp #gajim #jabber

@amdg2 @daniel @zeank That's right! The XMPP Network Graph project, for example, uses this data to create a schematic of part of the public, #decentralized #XMPP network! You can find it at https://xmppnetwork.goodbytes.im but beware: it is so large that it renders poorly on most mobile devices.

@mttaggart
Other (interoperable!) XMPP clients, such as Cheogram, allow for moderation of individual messages in groups, though the disappeared messages may not disappear from all clients that have already received them.

#XMPP #Cheogram

Finally the year of the #XMPP #fediverse server

#discord #privacy

@ariadne the above totally happened to me in #XMPP. So the joke is funny, but not funny

So... for those that have been around for a long while.

Does anyone have any good tips for hosting an #xmpp or #irc relay? is #matrix dendrite what people use these days instead?

You wan't to move from #Discord to #Movim and #XMPP, but you really miss one or two core feature?

I'll work the next few weeks on some of those missing features to help you and your community to migrate ✨

So what do you miss the most?

#migration #question

@mochabeau @Ashedryden well, maybe #Zulip? Or #DeltaChat, if you really want end-to-end encryption of group chats (but no control of roles)? #XMPP also has good group delegation, but the #OMEMO encryption can have less reliable delivery in groups, with various members disappearing for spells of time.

Me gustaría alojar mi propio servidor #xmpp. ¿Alguna recomendación?

@Oleksii @danish_akhtar7

For A/V calls, #XMPP itself does the signalling, while the payload is going either directly from device to device, or, if one or multiple clients are behind firewall/NAT, a TURN server is used.

Most public servers should do that. Check on https://compliance.conversations.im/ if XEP-0215 is supported by your server.

Btw. which clients have you tried?

Just released version 1.13 of slixmpp, a #python library for the #XMPP messaging protocol!

https://blog.mathieui.net/slixmpp-1-13.html

@danish_akhtar7

Btw. in case it is important to you: #Jabber/#XMPP uses #OMEMO encryption, which is practically the same crypto protocol as Signal has, incl. #forwardSecrecy.

But for Jabber, you don't need a phone number, you are not bound Android/iOS, and you don't need to use AWS.

Best clients to start with:
- #Conversations_im (Android)
- #Monal (iOS)
- #Dino (Linux desktop)
- #Movim (web browser)

@danish_akhtar7

I never tried Signal or Whatsapp, but I'm on free and federated #Jabber/#XMPP since 2014. I came late to the party — Jabber exists since 1999. At some point, Google chat federated with Jabber, but they stopped it, because #BigTech does bigtech things.

Bridges from Jabber to Whatsapp and Signal do exist, i.e. #slidge, but because WA and Signal are anti-federation, the bridge can only work, if one has an account on WA/Signal 😞

Anyway, all friends and family are on Jabber now.

We engage with decentralization protocols a lot (many nerds love to) but make no mistake: in the end, the app needs to work and be easy to use. #deltachat is a cross-platform FOSS offering, with guaranteed security levels, close to user expectations ... major factors in driving adoption!

True, the email system is not necessarily better than #xmpp ... but please compare with http://chatmail.at which is fast, ephemeral and secure, with delta inherently being a peer-to-peer E2EE messenger :)

What I love about #Conversations_im as a #UnifiedPush distributor—aside from #XMPP being a reliable, secure, and efficient protocol—is that it comes with a healthy dose of decentralization.

Sure, you can technically self-host a Sunup instance, but will you? XMPP already offers thousands of providers out of the box.

El servidor XMPP de la instancia lleva activo desde este verano.

Si necesitas una cuenta el acceso es por invitación para usuarios de la comunidad y personas de confianza, con la idea de ofrecer mensajería federada fuera de silos privativos.

Es un proyecto pequeño, pero estable.

Mi recomendación es claramente #Jabber/#XMPP.

Libre y federado desde 1999 (lo uso desde ≈ 2014). La tecnologia es la misma que usan en Google FCM, Whatsapp, Zoom, Fortnite chat, Grindr etc.

Hay una comunidad muy diversa, varios servidores y clientes. Jabber es el fediverso de chat!

También hay canales públicos como Telegram: https://search.jabber.network/ por @sjn.

Never tried Zoom. Both #JitsiMeet (general video conferences) and #BigBlueButton (webninars) typically work. A/V quality can vary though. Depends on selected server, number of participants, location of participants, etc.

{EDIT} You can e.g. try @senfcall for #BBB or check @bigbluebutton. There are many public Jitsi instances, e.g. in DE.

RE: https://fosstodon.org/@prosodyim/116023920812720509

**Important consideration if you are running a XMPP server.**

If you are using Ejabberd you need to be at least on 25.08 or have mod_s2s_dialback enabled until you can upgrade. Otherwise your connection to other XMPP servers will fail.

Prosody IM » 🌐 2026-02-06
@prosodyim@fosstodon.org

Let's Encrypt is making changes to the certificates it issues from 11th February. This has some impact on the XMPP network.

No action required for Prosody operators. Operators of servers running ejabberd need to make sure they are running version 25.08 or later.

More details in our blog post: https://blog.prosody.im/2026-letsencrypt-changes/

There are IM apps mostly pushed by a few loud enthusiasts on Mastodon, and then there is #XMPP, which is used in the real world.

For example:

• Evacuating people from battlefields in Afghanistan: That’s XMPP.
• Shipping metric fuck tons of cocaine across the globe: That’s XMPP.

#ThatsXMPP #Jabber

@prosodyim @ejabberd @debian @letsencrypt

#Debian 13 #trixie stable has #ejabberd 24.12.

In case it is affected, I hope, there will be a patched version in time.

EDIT: It has been pointed out to me, that the problem is not as severe as it might sound. Connections to servers with s2s dialback will continue to work. I assume/hope, that most servers do have that mechanism enabled.

#Letsencrypt #Jabber #XMPP

Another (second) release of siltamesh, my simple bridge between XMPP and the meshtastic network.

Reliability has been improved, and now you can store the received locations of local mesh nodes. The locations can even be displayed online with @umap, a great OSM-based online map.

Unfortunately spam and abuse - like anywhere on the Internet - can be a problem in public channels on the Jabber/XMPP network.
That's why the next version of #Conversations_im is combining ban and message deletion (moderation) into one step.

Let's hope you won't need that functionality very often.

#XMPP #Jabber

I have written support for OpenClaw chat over XMPP by contributing code for an XMPP channel: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/pull/9741
You can test it and let me know.

And yes be careful about the security. Make your research. You have to know what you are getting into first.

#xmpp

I've been playing around with #XMPP, so I set up a group chat where XMPP and fediverse nerds can live chat the #Superbowl on Sunday.

If you've been thinking about trying XMPP this might be your excuse. If you couldn't care less about the Superbowl, I get that too. (I may have a conflict, myself.)

Let me know if anything isn't working correctly. (And, boosts appreciated to help spread the word.)

The room is at: superb-owl@conference.chat.twomile.com

And if you're already set up with XMPP this may work (hand-written; no promises): xmpp://superb-owl@conference.chat.twomile.com?join

@marxistvegan

I hope, that free and federated #instantMessaging will dominate at some point, no matter which one.

My personal favourite is #Jabber/#XMPP, because

1. I consider it more versatile (even universal) than other approaches. E.g. my company does IoT based on it. There are also social apps like #Movim and #Libervia or professional team chat like #Prose.

2. It is used in huge (unfortunately proprietary) setups already, e.g. Google FCM, Zoom, Fornite, Grindr…

#digitalSovereignty

On the #xmpp front, I know if it were different times under different thoughts on interoperability, but wouldn't gchat and facebook messenger just need to remove their walls to make them interoperable?

#facebook #messenger #gchat #googlechat

Was thinking about the French news that they will move away from Zoom and even Signal. At first I understood the Zoom issue and was a little perplexed by the Signal one, however I can understand it in that there is no way for France to host their version. Which brings me back to a question, will XMPP make a reemergence or will something like Delta take its place? (discuss)

De WhatsApp a Delta Chat

La situacion en #cyberdelia.com.ar es la siguiente, cortaron la luz, parece que el corte es grande porque Edesur puso un generador para suplir la falta de servicio que desde hace 12 horas nos dejo sin luz. El tema es que eso afecto a los nodos del ISP y todavia no hay servicio de internerd en la zona.

Esperemos que cuando vuelva internerd el ISP recuerde que tenemos IP publica... hasta entonces sera todo incertidumbre.

Si no vuelve solo, tendre que gestionar una visita tevcnica del ISP... asi que en el peor de los casos nos vemos la semana que viene.

I understand that the endless social media debates about which messaging client is best are obnoxious. That’s why we need to finally adopt a common standard so everyone can choose between Cheogram, Conversations, and Yaxim, or Dino and Gajim, without having to convince everyone else to use the same one.

#Jabber #XMPP #IETF #RFC

@delta Did someone say #decentralization? Have a look at this (but don't do it on mobile, as trying to render 12,000 nodes on your phone may cause it to melt)! This network graph renders but a small part of the public XMPP interconnected community.

#XMPP, boring, stable, scalable - a battle-tested, truly federated protocol with decades of real-world operation.

https://xmppnetwork.goodbytes.im/3d.html

I am here once again asking you to switch to #decentralized solutions, the answer is never centralization,

if you are going to leave #WhatsApp switch to #ArcaneChat, #DeltaChat, #XMPP, #Matrix, etc.

Can we imagine to have #interoperability between #matrix #threema and #xmpp? #messenger

I know it’s possible between matrix and xmpp but I never heard that's possible with threema.

I tag @threemaapp @matrix and @xmpp

XMPP in general and #Conversations_im in particular are used a lot by organizations and individuals that have something to hide. They have absolutely zero interest in appearing on marketing slides or blog posts. But buy #XMPP developers enough Belgian beer at FOSDEM and you'll hear the stories.

#fosdem was cool! I attended a single day, spent it all chatting with cool folks who wanted to know more about #XMPP and its gateways such as https://slidge.im
As the "bridges guy", it was my duty to socialize with our neighbours @matrix and @delta - we have different opinions on which tech is better, but our goals are aligned: long live federated self-hostable chat protocols! No need to FUD each other.

It's amazing how much XMPP instant messaging traffic I can still get through a very slow EDGE connection, whereas the Mastodon API with Tusky doesn't work at all.

> Still, I would not switch, because other features, which I use everyday in #Jabber/#XMPP are still missing, e.g. gateways to IRC, Matrix, and SMS.

actually this is not true, there are bridges to #Matrix, #IRC, #XMPP, #WhatsApp and many other platforms via #Matterbridge

but your point still stands valid, if you are a happy xmpp user why to switch? for me it is a no-go for the mentioned problems of xmpp group centralization etc. and difficulty of onboarding

Wieso muss mit jedem Ejabberd Neustart irgendwas kaputt sein? Meistens sind es nur S2S Verbindungen, die sich mit weiteren Neustarts wieder einrenken. Aber diesmal ist es echt ein Problem.

Lancei a braba!

Usei o Microsoft Teams para sugerir XMPP. Sou ousada.

#XMPP #Jabber

Alt...

E se tivéssemos nosso próprio chat na firma? ~ XMPP/Jabber Internamente, temos o Microsoft Teams. Mas observo que ele é muito limitado na troca de mensagens com público externo. Já fiz alguns testes trocando mensagens entre minha conta da firma e minha conta pessoal da Microsoft e não é nada intuitivo o uso. Por isso, ainda dependemos muito do WhatsApp para nos comunicarmos com fornecedores, parceiros, imprensa, regionais, etc. E se tivéssemos uma terceira alternativa hospedada internamente? Acredito que XMPP/Jabber seria uma opção interessante e relativamente fácil de aprender a usar, já que poderíamos usar nossos próprios e-mails como login. Além de ser uma ferramenta que funciona facilmente em Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, seja com aplicativo ou interface web. Quanto ao público externo e regionais, poderíamos incentivá-los a criar uma conta gratuita de XMPP, já que são muitos servidores disponíveis e geralmente os próprios aplicativos têm a opção de criar conta. Como nem todas as pessoas têm dois números para separar o WhatsApp de trabalho do WhatsApp pessoal, acredito que muita gente se interessaria por essa solução. É claro que não seria da noite para o dia, seria uma transição e o WhatsApp, infelizmente, não seria totalmente abandonado porque muitas empresas o escolheram como forma de comunicação. Pensei em colocar essa ideia no sistema, mas achei que aqui, mais pessoas, além da TI, poderiam conhecer essa possibilidade e pensar nela para o futuro da firma.

Preparations for #FOSDEM (continued):

Totgesagt? Keineswegs. Rund um Jabber (XMPP) gibt es nach wie vor eine erstaunlich engagierte Community. Der Digital Independence Day hat ordentlich Bewegung reingebracht: Innerhalb nur einer Woche entstanden Info-Folder in drei Sprachen – komplett layoutet von @digitalcourage. Deutsch und Englisch wurden noch rechtzeitig zur FOSDEM gedruckt, Französisch folgte als PDF. Ja, ein paar kleine Fehler sind noch drin – Version 2 kommt asap. Die Folder gibt’s im Digitalcourage-Shop: https://shop.digitalcourage.de

Ich fürchte, dass die meisten mit #XMPP überfordert sind da sie nur #WhatsApp und co kennen.

Bon, ça fait longtemps que j'ai pas démarré Gajim sur mon pc, je veux bien. Mais monocle est bien démarré sur mon smartphone et sur ma tablette.

Pourquoi est-ce que le dernier message posté dans tel MUC date du 16 Août sur Gajim ?

En 2026 il y a toujours pas une XEP de synchronisation des clients jsp ?

#XMPP #Gajim #XEP

Voici un comparatif récent entre les différentes solutions de messageries instantanée, avec des explications compréhensibles entre "centralisée", "fédérée" et "pair-to-pair", ainsi que le problème des métadonnées.

Ça me semble assez juste, et bien vulgarisé sans être enfantin.

Qu'en pensez vous comme base pour expliquer à la famille/amis pourquoi tel ou tel problème ?

Dear diary,

what a day!
A new version of #Conversations_im and #Quicksy is available.
Additionally, a new version of #Snikket (Android) has been released with much better user experience.
And, not to forget, on Codeberg, a new version of #monocleschat (including stories, feeds and a phone log) is available.

#XMPP is evolving...

25 January 2026

Liebes Tagebuch,

was für ein Tag!
Neue Versionen von #Conversations_im und #Quicksy sind verfügbar.
Außerdem wurde #Snikket (Android) aktualisiert und hat nun ein frisches Design.
Und, nicht zu vergessen: eine neue #monocleschat Version steht auf #Codeberg zur Verfügung (mit Stories, Feeds und Anrufliste).

#XMPP entwickelt sich weiter...

Dites les zinzinternets ! Vous connaissez snikket comme logiciel de messagerie instantanée ? 🤔

Ça semble chouette sur le papier et basé sur XMPP 😁

Le site : https://snikket.org/

#snikket #xmpp

We are slowly building a fully standardized, scalable and coherent social network, step by step 🏗️

All the interactions between the apps and platforms are strictly defined in XMPP

Stories for example are defined in this simple extension: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0501.html.

And for the first time two totally different clients are sharing Stories, in real time, without any adaptation in between ✨
..and everything is stored on your XMPP account! 🔒 Checkout the Stories integration in @monocles 🤩

#XMPP has never been so alive ♥️

The Join Movim service has been updated ✨

The servers list now only contains recently updated servers and tell you if a server is outdated 👀

If you're a Movim admin, don't forget to update your instance! 😽

The only relevant feature for any instant messaging app (or social app, for that matter) is: Are my friends using it? People will gladly overlook minor inconsistencies or missing features as long as they can communicate with their friends. We shouldn’t recommend #Signal as a stepping stone before Jabber/XMPP becomes "good enough," if goodness is defined by the number of people using it.

RE: https://mastodon.nl/@mboelen/115949458318365357

Oh, interessant initiatief! Ik zie dat daar al een paar mooie instant messaging applicaties op staan, maar ik mis nog wel de beschikbare applicaties die ook onderling federeren (zoals Conversations, Monocles en Snikket). Eens zien of we die toegevoegd kunnen krijgen! #XMPP #decentralized #federated

The "Digital Independence Day" has been announced in Germany.

Since there is not recipe for switching to an independent messenger based on XMPP I created a recipe-website which is now also available in English (there might still be some mistakes, since I am not a native speaker).

Aaaand jwchat.org/x-berg.de has updated to the latest version of ejabberd (26.01), which means - of course - that invitations are enabled now! 🥳

#jwchat_org #xmpp

waydroid to use molly.im on linux because none of the signal desktop clients have at-rest encryption :trollage:

also i REALLY need to get back to XMPP
i used it for work... but is there a smaller XMPP instance that i could use with.. ie: conversations?

maybe a fedi fren has an instance i could hop on 😳

poking you now, fedi

#xmpp #askfedi

🚀 ejabberd 26.01 is out!

Our first release of 2026 tackles two operational pain points:

- Database Serialization to migrate your data between database and servers more easily.

- Invite-based Registration (mod_invites): Now you can generate invitation links for controlled account creation, plus roster invites that let users connect without friction. (Thanks @nlnet and @zeank)

Full release notes: https://www.process-one.net/blog/ejabberd-26-01/

#XMPP #OpenSource #Messaging #ejabberd #RealTimeCommunication

Planned for future releases:

* support Roster Pre-Approval to further smoothen UX
* manage invites from your web-admin interface
* stand-alone page for creating invites using your account credentials (in case your client doesn’t support that)
* create invite token URIs for password-resets
* accessibility improvements to landing pages

Outside the scope of ejabberd:

* create a guide on how to create invites for a selected set of clients.
* Port to MongooseIM.

@aral so, what makes #KittenChat a better choice than #IRC (#WebIRC) or #XMPP+#OMEMO or #PGP/MIME?

• Besides being a #WebApp and easy to setup a server…

🎉 The DI.DAY folder flyers for XMPP are being printed now, in English and German! 🎉

Grab one at the #FOSDEM #XMPP stand in AW level 1!

Huge thanks to @padeluun from @digitalcourage for making this possible, to @jssfr for baking the recipe photo, to @marcuwekling for #DIDay and to everybody who contributed!

On the contrary, #XMPP is not just a standard #IETF protocol, it is a thriving ecosystem composed by a multitude of clients, servers, libraries and tools being actively developed in just about any programming language, with the the most prominent developments spread over Germany, France, UK and the USA among others, a solid and well established communities in the Nederlands, Italy, Spain, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Russia ( and particularly in Germany, France, UK and the USA .. but that kinda goes without saying ..) just to name a few, with servers running from almost all across the world.

If you'd like to know more about it, don't hesitate to ask!

@razortide
Moin aus dem hohen Norden,

ich habe eine Seite zum Einstieg in freies Messaging bzw. Independent Messaging mit #XMPP erstellt, siehe: https://xmpp24.de/

Eventuell ist die ja hilfreich, falls ihr so etwas auch anbietet.
