danielstein: on the chat banner avatar it should be there. For 1:1 chats

Hi guys does gajim have a 'new messages' feature? Like, it'll show the last seen message in a room, and indicate the first unread message?

idkman123: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/merge_requests/960

So, it hasn't been added yet? I don't understand gitlab conventions

idkman123: it hasn't

> So, it hasn't been added yet? Correct. But there has been some work on it. So it'll likely be included in Gajim at some point in the future

can you recommend a desktop client that does have the feature?

I think Movim (web client) does, but I'm not sure.

I just checked it out and it seems to have that feature ✏

Alternatively, you can build Gajim from this branch https://dev.gajim.org/wurstsalat/gajim/-/tree/restore-last-log-line

> Alternatively, you can build Gajim from this branch https://dev.gajim.org/wurstsalat/gajim/-/tree/restore-last-log-line Damn using gentoo would've been pretty useful right now

Link Mauve, rewriting it to use snapshot and getting rid of cairo was easier than thought. :) will push it this weekend

Yay, congrats!

idkman123, you don't need gentoo Just follow the instructions https://dev.gajim.org/wurstsalat/gajim/-/tree/restore-last-log-line#building

I was thinking about building that version too, but the database code changes gave me a bit of pause. Would using that change my database such that I wouldn't be able to revert in the future?

lissine, does that repo usually get updates?

idkman123, not regularly. But it's currently on par with release 1.9.5

> interesting. u can see moderated message by attempting to reply to it, at least on gajim
