Gajim - 2023-08-11

and today the ejabberd room decided to stop spinning... after weeks of it with no change.

I wonder if something changed on their side

I notice that XEP 0363 (HTTP File Upload) is supported by Gajim, but also that this spec does not specify encryption (leaves it up to the client). I was wondering what Gajim does in the case that a client is using OMEMO or PGP in a chat and decides to use the HTTP file upload feature- would it use symmetric keys from that session to encrypt the file, would it encrypt the filename? I hope this isn't too impulsive of a question to ask (i should read the code) :

😅 its complicated...

anomaly, https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0454.html

I see, thanks for linking that. Not exactly first-class, but certainly better than having no lock on the door so to speak

Also gajim looks much nicer than it did before, thanks for that xP

tfw not in debian stable

but flatpak

Flatpak works well on Debian. Otherwise, a newer version might be in the backports repository

Don't get why so few try XMPP lol. is marketing that powerful? also doesnt help its not called Jabber anymore

Yeah 'xmpp' can sound a bit vague and intimidating for some

Hah. Maybe if someone integrated some headless version of Mumble into a client or something things would be different

Gajim could quite reasonably be extended with a Mumble plugin. There is a Mumble python library that would probably work

yes, I think branding and being pushed by a big organization makes a big difference but it's a number of combining forces
