Gajim - 2024-08-30

Hello, does gajim 1.9.3 support windows 7 64bit? After I install gajim 1.9.3 and run it, a dialog popup and inform that api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll is missing. But gajim 1.7.3 can run without problem

jcwww, never.

The last version that supports Windows 7 64bit is 1.7.3.

Due to Python official.

Thanks! I have also notice that gajim 1.7.3 use python "3.10", but the latest python which support windows 7 is "3.8".

does it means that gajim modify the python 3.10 to make it support windows 7?

I do not think so... Developers have no plan to specially support Windows 7.

When they found that 1.8.0 does not support Windows 7, they did not plan to modify.

It looks like the fact that 1.7.3 supports Windows 7 was an accident.

ok, I will stay 1.7.3 before upgrade to windows 10/11

Python dropped Windows 7 support. So _maybe_ Gajim works, or it crashes with some random dll error like the one you posted :) And yes, we only support OSes within their official support period.

> ok, I will stay 1.7.3 before upgrade to windows 10/11 upgrade to linux. ignore the memes, its not hard for most use cases ↺

https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/blob/master/gajim/gtk/discovery.py#L94 hello, I am using biboumi and I get a question, should the identity `('conference', 'irc') ` use the `ToplevelAgentBrowser` ? because when it is conference it should be same as muc

jestar: that code hasn't been touched in ages. But also, Biboumi wrongly advertised 'conference' for quite a while. I think that's been fixed now.

yes, biboumi wrongly advertise the gateway as conference

Exactly

it would be nice if someone donated a server to the gajim project :)

though maybe hardware is not the problem

Has anyone had any luck getting a voice call going on Gajim? I've got Prosody set up along with Coturn. Works great on Conversations but on Gajim it's totally borked

interloper: gajim uses an older standard that is incompatible with conversations etc.

that's a shame. Are there other clients that work on this same standard? is there an XEP?

wonder if I can get it working on prosody

interloper: try Dino

cal0pteryx, it works with Dino, that's nice. Weirdly enough I can't find the option to call in Dino's UI but that's Gnome for ya

Doesn't show for me

I’m receiving high frequency spam in MUC PMs, it seems to be slowing down my client enough that it takes time to send new messages, is there any way this can be mitigated?

(apparently the slowness is only in the given MUC)

Leave the MUC or report it to the moderators/admins of the MUC I would assume

> Leave the MUC or report it to the moderators/admins of the MUC I would assume well, it’s so high frequency that my messages have trouble going through…

you could try another client temporarily?

> you could try another client temporarily? I think the issue is with the stanzas that need to be handled by the client, if all of the spam needs to be handled before seeing that the message was sent…

I can try another client/device though

wow, Conversations puts MUC PMs inline…

either try to contact one of the moderators via PM

if thats not possible, leave the MUC, try to join tomorrow again

> either try to contact one of the moderators via PM I did send a message to one of the moderators, but they’re not necessarily active right now

I guess some anti-spam measures could be implemented on their server

also, I’m not receiving spam anymore but messages still take time to send, so I guess the issue is with the MUC itself

I’m guessing XEP-0377 and XEP-0191 aren’t for MUC PMs?

no

also it does not help

if someone dos you with traffic

it does not even help if we drop the message at the client

basically server needs to stop it before it reaches us

but this is normally no problem, because mods ban the people

and if not, yeah then dont hang out in this non-moderated chat anymore

I think the server is what's having issues, not the client
