Continued thread

Sure, #elinks isn't built for the modern web, but it serves a purpose. I use #aerc for email, #senpai for irc, #iamb for matrix chat, #slrn for newsgroups and message boards, #ncspot for Spotify, #mpg123 for local media or online radio, and #rbw for my bitwarden client. I really don't need much else. It's not a machine I rely on for serious tasks, but it's covered most of my daily needs. Best of all, without a GUI, it's blazing fast!

I've been enjoying some time on #gopher and #gemini as well.

@pmidden Then there's the "official" #Element. And the console #iamb.
I look in there myself sometimes and it seems that most clients don't care. Others don't like that the main alternative is written in Rust :rust:. Well the vulnerability is kind of hard to exploit and you can use broken ones. At your own risk, of course.

I have just released v0.0.10 of iamb! 🎉 Since its last version, the client has gained:

- A command to mark rooms as DMs, set per-room notification levels, and to mark all rooms read
- Message slash commands
- Support for managing room aliases, room history, and bans
- Bug fixes for window resizes, <C-W>o, saving/restoring more layout info, and more!

See github.com/ulyssa/iamb/release for binaries and a list of changes, and iamb.chat/ for docs and install instructions.

I can't answer the first, but for the latter, IRC is still wonderful, but if you want encryption, you might look into XMPP or Matrix, if you haven't tried those.

There are some pretty lightweight matrix servers you can self-host, if you're wanting to, and there are some great lightweight GUI clients like #FluffyChat, #NeoChat, and #Nheko, and at least one really good TUI client, #iamb.

But I honestly feel like #XMPP is the under-utilized option.

Ok, iamb.chat is a seriously cool command-line matrix client.

God knows what the 600+ #rust dependencies are for, but #YOLO

(Come at me, #rustbros. I actually kinda like your language, but YOU have to be the one to look yourself in the mirror and say "Yes, I shipped a *command-line* utility that had 600 dependencies" and somehow not break down into tears or manic laughter. #ERMAGHERD)

I was a gomuks user in the past, so recently when setting up Matrix again I decided to try iamb.chat and I love it.

It has a very minimal UI. You can set up a layout, exit and by default it will remember it.

Controls are vim-like all the way to macros. You can have tabs for things like rooms, DMs, the room list, and you can further split tabs into panes.

After tweaking the space taken by the usernames on left side of chat, I now have a compact Matrix monitor on my terminal.
