Hey all! Anyone here managed to get gajim in wayland/sway to "open" downloads in the appropriate apps? HTTP links open my browser, but "open containing folder" or "open image" yields nothing. `xdg-open` works and respects apps I set with `xdg-mime`. I looked in gajim's code and gajim uses `Gio.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri()`. I guess this uses something else than `xdg-open`, but I don't understand where it's set…

<https://docs.gtk.org/gio/type_func.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri.html> mentions dbus stuff, I wonder if I'm missing a dbus-something service, maybe…

lovetox, despite its name, xdg-open doesn’t respect the XDG specification, you should use the gio tool to make sure it does it correctly.

Err, nicoco*

thanks Link Mauve and lovetox, what a mess

I managed to set my image viewer this way, but opening the containing folder does not seem to work, despite `gio open some/folder` opening the application I want (org.kde.dolphin.desktop). Oh well, displaying images larger than the preview is what I needed anyway. Today I learned about `gio mime blablabla`stuff, I wish I didn't. 🤣

Most desktop environments have graphical tools for that.

nicoco: what does `xdg-mime query default inode/directory` say?

and `gio mime inode/directory`?

> Most desktop environments have graphical tools for that. yeah sure, I'm responsible for my troubles, wanting to use sway ;) ↺

meson: ``` nicoco@tour-nicoco-infernale ~> xdg-mime query default inode/directory org.kde.dolphin.desktop nicoco@tour-nicoco-infernale ~> gio mime inode/directory Application par défaut pour « inode/directory » : org.kde.dolphin.desktop Aucune application inscrite Aucune application recommandée ```

interestingly it's slightly different about image/jpeg (for which gajim opens the app I want: ``` nicoco@tour-nicoco-infernale ~> xdg-mime query default image/jpeg org.kde.gwenview.desktop nicoco@tour-nicoco-infernale ~> gio mime image/jpeg Application par défaut pour « image/jpeg » : org.kde.gwenview.desktop Applications inscrites : org.kde.gwenview.desktop Applications recommandées : org.kde.gwenview.desktop ```

So, for gio, there's a "default app" for inode/directory but no "registered" or "recommended" app.

Whereas there's also a "default app" for image/jpeg, but this time this default app is both "registered" and "recommended". 🤷

nicoco, sounds like org.kde.dolphin.desktop doesn’t register for inode/directory, you should probably report that to whoever provides that .desktop file.

You can also try adding it first.

hmmmm seems like it's there though: ``` root@tour-nicoco-infernale ~# grep inode /usr/share/applications/org.kde.dolphin.desktop MimeType=inode/directory; root@tour-nicoco-infernale ~# grep jpeg /usr/share/applications/org.kde.gwenview.desktop MimeType=inode/directory;image/avif;image/gif;image/heif;image/jpeg;image/jxl;image/png;image/bmp;image/x-eps;image/x-icns;image/x-ico;image/x-portable-bitmap;image/x-portable-graymap;image/x-portable-pixmap;image/x-xbitmap;image/x-xpixmap;image/tiff;image/x-psd;image/x-webp;image/webp;image/x-tga;image/x-xcf;application/x-krita;image/x-kde-raw;image/x-canon-cr2;image/x-canon-crw;image/x-kodak-dcr;image/x-adobe-dng;image/x-kodak-k25;image/x-kodak-kdc;image/x-minolta-mrw;image/x-nikon-nef;image/x-olympus-orf;image/x-pentax-pef;image/x-fuji-raf;image/x-panasonic-rw;image/x-sony-sr2;image/x-sony-srf;image/x-sigma-x3f;image/x-sony-arw;image/x-panasonic-rw2; ```

or maybe "register for xxx" means something else :)

I've noticed that I can no longer search emojis in the emoji chooser, when opening it for an image preview using the gtk4 branch: the search field does not let me type text

i.e. it doesn't get any focus

looks like it nerver has worked in the gtk4 branch, so it's not a recent regression.

I'm talking about the _Add Reaction_ button below an image, when there are already other reactions.

And yeah it's independent of the message type of course, it doesn't need to be an image, can also be a normal message. ;)

works for me

ah when there are already other reactions

hm yeah can reproduce it

i will take a look

btw, the other rendering issues I've seen in the gtk4 branch are already reported upstream: * https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/7154 * https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/7157

thanks meson

you re welcome.

Hello, people. Can you advice me some very active chats? I want to chat with people.

Gajim feels cool. I registered in xmpp only today, lol.

https://search.jabber.network/

here you can sort chats per topic or user count and explore some chats

Yeah, i know. That's how i am here. Looks like almost no chats in jabber. But i feel like a 10 y.o. kid who discovered internet chats, lol.

yeah its not a big network :D

but the 10 people that are in every chat are nice :)

the biggest oldschool network is now Libera Chat, i guess.

> but the 10 people that are in every chat are nice :) 😂 ↺

you can join IRC channels from XMPP via a bridge as well

XMPP is currently more focussed on private chats, hence public channels not being so popular

yeah

Can somebody help me? i keep getting "No devices found to encrypt this message to" we both are online we both have added each other as contact

> Can somebody help me? i keep getting "No devices found to encrypt this message to" we both are online we both have added each other as contact Use newest versions. Use same version. Install through flatpaks. ↺

+ turn off, turn on the app

> + turn off, turn on the app Like as in close it down fully and reopen? ↺

> Like as in close it down fully and reopen? Did you install newest version? Did you check that you and him have the same version? ↺

> Did you install newest version? Did you check that you and him have the same version? Yes im pretty sure i downloaded the newest version but not sure about him and i am on windows so i cant download through flatpak ↺

> Yes im pretty sure i downloaded the newest version but not sure about him and i am on windows so i cant download through flatpak well, ask him. Lol. ↺

and tell me your version. Write it down here. Type it

Damn

> well, ask him. Lol. will do will come back when i know what version he is using ↺

> Damn 1.9.5 (Windows) ↺

so yeah not sure on what to do we are on the same version

ffofeao, if you have no real advice other then "turn it of and on again", leave answering to other people

William, your install and version is fine

when you click the chat details button in the top, and go to the settings page, does it look like that

https://share.hoerist.com/philipp/sjb74vap8YH8RYdg/feab61a1-5810-4aa0-a550-fbcfe54a931d.png

what the error means you are seeing is, that either you contact has not published any keys or you have no access

are you on the same server registered?

meson: fyi, I'm currently working on your preview hover commit
