Conversations 2.18.2 is available on Google Play and has client side mitigations for a server side security issue that was recently discovered and fixed in #ejabberd¹ and #OpenFire²

Go update your server. But just in case that takes a minute Conversations has your back too!

This release also fixes an issue with restoring (importing) backups on recent Android versions.

AFAIK, #Conversations offers domain hosting on their #ejabberd. I.e. they could (in theory) grab all your metadata, sell it, and send you daily reminders to buy #MobileCoin from them. However, as you own your domain, you could export your data ("XEP-0227: Portable Import/Export Format for XMPP-IM Servers") and move elsewhere. Also, Conversations is hosted in the #EU, i.e. #GDPR applies until #FriedrichMerz kills it.

Any developers willing to port/adapt/rewrite #ejabberd api component of #Quicksy server to work with #prosody #xmpp server?

Basically we want to create xmpp accounts via a server component after verifying phone number with sms otp.

Currently it is possible to do this on ejabberd, but adding prosody support will make it easy to add phone number verification to prosody as well. Adding phone number verification or an invite to create account will help stop #spam accounts by a huge margin.

Any admins of #xmpp servers with open sign ups and running #ejabberd here on #fedi ? At #Prav, we are exploring potential collaboration with xmpp public providers to give choice of providers to prav users. Since Prav needs a subscrption, we'd like people trying Prav to have some xmpp provider if they are unable to pay. Another option would be to find sponsors to give gratis accounts in Prav itself.

I now have a website I can deploy with make html it's just like the good old days. 😅

Shamelessly riding on the back of the hard yards I've been observing @quixoticgeek doing to come to this conclusion: cetaceanneeded.com/the-search-

I didn't actually intend to be doing this... it is a spontaneous side-project of the project of replacing Mattermost with eJabberd ... I decided I wanted to write a post documenting some hurdles in that, but couldn't face dealing with the old WordPress blog.

So, inspired by the post above, I deployed "Pelican" this evening. Which, all in all, went pretty smoothly.

First post: yvan.seth.id.au/posts/can-a-pe

It isn't in any way integrated into an cohesive whole with the piecemeal mess I call a website at the moment. (And this isn't a huge priority right now.)

Now we'll see if I can keep up the motivation to document the #eJabberd setup.

I promised myself an early night to be lively for the allotment tomorrow, and I see it is 03:12. Ooopsies.

Install #eJabberd they say, it'll be easy they* say!!

We can send messages to each other using #XMPP desktop clients or the converse.js web client I've set up at a URL, but been bashing my head against file/image uploads for a couple of hours now. Was some funky systemd/filesystem protection shit going on and I fixed and now I don't have an error about file permissions... instead the whole thing just silently fails. 🤣

* Nobody really said this, except for the voices in my head... they're always telling me to do stuff, that it'll be easy... they're liars

Estic intentant muntar un servidor de missatgeria xmpp (en servidor cloud debian). He provat #prosody, amb #Snikket, amb #eJabberd... Seguint les passes que indiquen a les seves webs sembla que s'instal·len correctament però les aplicacions (tipus Conversations) no troben aquests servidors xmpp quan intento connectar-hi.

Em podeu recomanar algun recurs (per novells!) per aprendre conceptes bàsics de servidors en general (ports, certificats, nginx...) i/o xmpp?
Gràcies!

Es gibt sehr viele gute Software. In der Familie sind für uns XMPP Clients ganz wichtig. Wir verwenden diese zum chatten, telefonieren, video calls.

In der Familie wird meist der Andorid Client #Conversations verwendet oder #Monal für iOS. Ich selber verwende #profanity und #gajim. Die Kinder verwenden #dino.

Die Server #prosody und #ejabberd dürfen auch nicht fehlen.

Vielen Dank an die XMPP Community!
