Gajim - 2025-07-07

Hello, I can confirm that for now all nightly versions of Gajim (installer, portable and msixbundle) are accessible to screenreaders in Windows \o/

so the next Gajim release should be accessible ^^

That's great news!

Lazy loading works :)

That looks fancy :)

> https://share.conversations.im/meeson_/message/QnDnT9o3cgpXx68h/Screencast_LazyLoadingDemo.mp4 very cool! ↺

> Hello, I can confirm that for now all nightly versions of Gajim (installer, portable and msixbundle) are accessible to screenreaders in Windows \o/ Wonderful! ↺

Next step is to test it with async loading real pictures.

mesonium: that's going to be interesting :)

Yes that will be interesting as you don't know the dimensions beforehand, I imagine a lot of resizing will going on then

But looks great

hi

I tried it quickly with Gio.File.new_for_path and Gtk.Picture().new_for_file() for 5k pictures. It works, but the performance is not yet good enough. Usuable, but kinda laggy. :) ✏

people really share 5k pictures directly like this?

Codimp, I got 5k pictures in my gajim downloads folders collected over years ;)

ohno :D

> Codimp, I got 5k pictures in my gajim downloads folders collected over years ;) I have 7k ↺

I think my eyes can't even see more than 4k :D

no no I was talking about the # of pictures

not the dimensions

oh ok my bad

> So I just installed gajim and logged in to my existing account and for some reason it's very laggy. I tried to send three messages to my contact and then we wanted those reached to him. It didn't even load all my chats on the some of them and gajim cannot even close. So when I click close it just doesn't react. I was wondering whether the problem was so I opened the XML console and I saw hundreds and hundreds of presence updates coming. I think they are from the past it's just an endless stream and I think the whole server bandwidth is occupied by this. This is why I cannot do anything and this is also why gajim is so lagg - It's busy parsing on this garbage. I have no idea why these are being sent, Whether it's Gajim's or my service fault, but it's just so funny, endless garbage being sent for no reason, just xml braindamage. I'll let it run for a while I guess, hoping it will calm down, but I wonder how much bandwidth this is going to use on nothing. A gigabyte or 10. Not over btw. I launched it again today and here it goes receiving endless garbage. So basically Gajim doesn't work with my account. ↺

ok, i told you you need to leave some MUCs to find out where the problem is

if someone spams you, find the source

That seems to be all MUCs including this one and only on gajim

Hi everybody, a quick question. Is this right that even though gajim 2.3.2 can subscribe and unsubscribe to/from pubsub nodes, it cannot display the posts from them? ✏

I checked that the stanza with message type "headline" is received, but I do not see anything happening in the client.

sly_fox, reading posts from pubsub is not supported in Gajim. You'd need something like Movim for that

Thank you, yes that's what I figured, I just wanted to confirm!

ha, async loading and resizing using pixbug enhances the performances a lot. I'd say it's acceptable :)

Oh, just upgraded to Gajim 2.3.2, was something activated? The interfaz looks really different (for good), but I can't find anything in the release notes

Looks very Gnome-ish :p

> Eduard T, https://gajim.org/posts/2025-06-29-gajim-2.3.0-released/#whats-new Lovely, thanks ↺

> great :) GTK is on it's way to fade-out Pixbuf, I've heard oh noe! have you heard of alternatives? ↺

but looks pretty sleek now. headings are missing though

Glycin seems to be a replacement? Though that's not cross-platform yet

> but looks pretty sleek now. headings are missing though I'm curious to try it out :) ↺

> I'm curious to try it out :) The code needs a lot of clean up, but if you don't care I share it tomorrow ↺

Also I'd still consider it experimental

> The code needs a lot of clean up, but if you don't care I share it tomorrow Sure, a lot of work already went into it, now I like to see how it's happening :) ↺

mesonium: wow! Your work seems great. Simple, fluid. I know people who will be very enthusiastic about thi. I know a friend for whom its a big criterion to have this tyle of feature (media viewer) Thanks Always happy to see how much people in the FOSS communities are willing to put work into
