I see v2 has voice disabled as per announcement. Wondering if one can enable it somehow?

It wouldn't be compatible with any other clients right now anyways.

If you are referring to audio calls, yes, that's disabled permanently. Voice messages should work though (the ones you send)

yeah, audio calls. OK, that's fine.

any news about Windows release? or are you even more stuck since the gitlab issue?

Same stuck-ness as before

I installed gajim via flatpak on devuan linux, because it's the only way I can seem to get the latest version. But the icons don't render and the interface doesn't look ideal. Anyone know why? I'll next try install it via guix. It seems the deb repo refers to daily packages but they seem very outdated.

divan: if you have a custom theme, you might have to install it also for flatpak

hannibal: You right. Further, I think if I install it as my user (not root), it may solve the issue.

danielstein, their xmpp implementation is stuck in 2010 or so

they are working on a full rewrite afaik, but right now it lacks basically all modern features of XMPP

Just checking the 1.8.4v audio calls are not expected to work with current conversations app?

Correct

what does the "Activity feed" do?

Kris, for now, it does what the Notification list on the account page did. It's planned to extend functionality though: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/issues/11677

I see. sounds good!

Hey, congrats for 2.1.0!

Do you know if the weblate is still connected to Gitlab? I don't see any new translations to do

Codimp, the new blog post isn't written yet It'll show up here when it is https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/website/-/commits/master

ah yep, my bad

I noticed that the timestamps are currently being displayed in a wierd manner They're kind of cropped at the top

https://share.ellini.org:5281/file_share/067f5960-0ad0-7b20-8b70-08842aab7a74/timestamp_font.png

I reinstalled 2.0.0 just to check, and the issue is there as well. So this is probably some dependency that I recently updated. (probably GTK which I updated to 4.18.2)

GTK Version: 4.18.2 GLib Version: 2.84.0 Pango Version: 1.56.3 PyGObject Version: 3.50.0 cairo Version: 1.18.4 pycairo Version: 1.27.0 python-nbxmpp Version: 6.1.0 libsoup Version: 3.4.2

The previous GTK version I was on is 4.16.12

Same issue here

https://share.ellini.org:5281/file_share/067f5986-a9c4-75fc-9f73-a25e267cad49/font_issue.png

~Maybe the problem is the padding around timestamps is too big?~ ✏

Also noticed in the start chat window, so it's not unique to timestamps

https://share.ellini.org:5281/file_share/067f59ac-f4f9-7bd0-8982-014264cb309f/font_issue2.png

yeah some font rendering issue

since GTK4.0 they have all kinds of rendering issues

Is it related to the GTK update?

the have now 3 or so different backends for rendering stuff

browse some gtk issues, or simply report the problem

Is there any way to hide the emoji icon next to the chat box? I don't use them. Also, in one on one chats is there a way to right/left align messages to make them easier to read? I'm guessing there is not a way to do either of these things, but wanted to check with the community. Okay, thanks

Or maybe a way to do chat bubbles with a custom theme or something? That would be super cool

rt3, you can theme some aspects of chat bubbles in Gajim -> Preferences -> Style -> Theme If you want more control, you can edit gajim.css

Either way, great program. I was using dino before and this one is way better

lissine, I don't seem to have any themes installed. Where is the css file located? Or is it created? I see you have custom colors. Could love to do this with my contacts.

*would

Is there like a theme repository somewhere for downloading new themes?

rt3, you can create a custom theme from the menu I mentioned above. As for gajim.css, I guess its location depends on how you installed gajim. For me it's in /usr/lib/python3.1?/site-packages/gajim/data/style/gajim.css ✏

lissine, Oh, I see you just do it yourself from the add setting option?

Yes

lissine, Thanks for your help. I'll get to hacking on this. :)

You're welcome :)

About the font rendering issue I mentioned earlier, it only affects monospace fonts. And there's already an issue for it: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/7429

lissine, Oh, my fonts seem to be working fine, so not really sure (guess I don't use monospace fonts? Not sure).

the issue I mentioned affects recent GTK versions (I have it on 4.18.2 but didn't have it on 4.16)

Oh I see, well I am using 2.0.4 according to my package manager. gtk4 is 4.18.4. Still, I don;t have any real issues. Although, creating a theme seems really complicated. Is there a guide online or anything on how to theme gajim?

lissine, Okay thanks again (doesn't seem like options I want exist yet for 1-1 convos) gonna logoff now :)

rt3: those options in the preferences are limited As mentioned earlier you'll need to edit gajim.css for more customization
