Gajim - 2023-08-16

why did this chat app be able to be used in china

why would it not?

need VPN

like youtube and so on

but this app only need wlan

are you saying that gajim works without a vpn in china, which is surprising to you?

yes，I am

Too niche to be blocked 😅

did you know bilibili？

I don't know much about how china blocks services, but I would assume that xmpp just isn't popular enough for them to figure out all the domains and IP addresses to add to their blocking rules

Kris beat me to it

but part of it is that xmpp does not rely on a single domain name, it is decentralized and hosted on hundreds of servers

my english is not well

> did you know bilibili？ no

you can try to search it in your contry

it's video sharing I think, but I don't know how this relates to the topic

i am a chinese🤗

> it's video sharing I think, but I don't know how this relates to the topicChinese websites require VPN to log in to foreign countries

On the contrary, foreign websites in China also require a VPN to log in

😎

actually, I'm a little surprised that they don't make efforts to block xmpp, assuming that is the case

Actually, it's not

Very few Chinese leftists use xmpp to evade police pursuit and engage in online communication with the aim of social revolution

It also brought me into contact with foreigners

🤗

Always good to learn about other ideas from around the world 👍

😘没错

that right

😁

hope to develop my english level

😊

🙂

> did you know bilibili？ I do.

I've noticed that when a chat is presumably attempting to connect and is showing the rotating arrow icon, about %34-%38 cpu is consumed constantly by gajim ✏

and no, this isn't an ancient cpu

>> did you know bilibili？ > I do. What do you think of it

rebecca: what should I, lol? ×D

couldn't port 5222 simply be blocked?

Gajim 1.8.1 is now in Debian unstable, 1.8.0 is in stable-backports and will be updated to 1.8.1 when that version hits Debian testing.

Today is Debians 30th birthday, btw.!

debacle: nice, thanks, as always :)

yw & thanks for Gajim!

Why does he write when attaching a photo (Direct sending without encryption), but other contacts do not write this

ss01, what?

d0942c07-ac2d-40d5-9532-33b9bcd82b22.png 399 bytes Direct transmission (without encryption) Add Files… Cancel Send files

But this does not always happen, only with some contacts

I guess you are talking about direct file transfers (the fallback)/http upload transfers (the default)

If http upload is not available on the server, the fallback (direct) is used

> If http upload is not available on the server, or if the file size exceeds the limit set for the http upload component

Right
