Weder noch. Beides sind Messenger mit denen ich nichts anfangen kann. Ich verwende #XMPP (#Jabber). Ich habe vor einigen Jahren meiner Familie gesagt, dass ich nur XMPP verwende (oder eben E-Mail / SMS). Die meisten haben sich dann einen XMPP Client (#Conversations) installiert.
Freunde und Bekannte zu überzeugen habe ich aufgegeben. Hin und wieder kommt immer jemand dazu,.. aber es dauert sehr lange. Ich habe aber Zeit und kann warten. Ich muss auch nicht alles mitbekommen.

Would like to #askfedi about the "Conversations Legacy" #conversations #conversations_im @daniel #xmpp client - this version used to be on GooglePlay before some time, but later has disappeared, and I seem to have missed any "official" comment in that regard.

Do I understand correctly that it is just not supported/updated anymore and people who have it (I know somebody) shall update to the mainstream for security reasons?

Would the update recognize the old data or one should proceed via backup and its restoration (if it is possible)? Thanks.

@mintbug диспропорциональные шрифты во всех клиентах #Matrix, постоянная ругань на ключ и и куча польт от юзеров в этом гардеробе - брошенных акков. Где-то в чатах есть юзеры, но за брошенными акками их просто не видно. Из того же jabber-клиента #Conversations можно туда заходить, но проблема там в чатах с автовходами: jabber-учётка там часто так и остаётся в чатах висеть после отключения и при следующем входе (почти каждый раз) нужно менять там ник. Может на компе там всё лучше, но в их клиентах "Элемент", "ШилдиЧат" везде одинаково, по сути.

У кого‐нибудь в Conversations была такая проблема, что видеозвонок проходит, если собеседник в интернете через WiFi, но не работает, если он в интернете мобильного провайдера? На той стороне: «Текущая сеть не поддерживает видеозвонки» или что‐то такое.

You can best use it with your family or friends. Much more fun then alone.
I started it with actually on my first smartphone. Used #yaxim and then #conversations, with my own #prosody server (on a #raspberrypi 1), and stayed it with all the years, as it steadily improved.
It was first me and my brothers, but then my whole family and some friends too.

There are public rooms too, but it most shines in whatsapp/signal like private groups and messages in my opinion.

Some public rooms are listed here

[Question] #XMPP #Dino #Ejabberd and #Conversations
I have an issue regarding rooms configuration, I have one room where xep-0444 (emoji reactions) is enabled and working but on the same server every other rooms haven't the feature and I fucking doesn't find the option to enabled it. Do you know how I can do that ?

I have the exact same issue with the button "Start a call" in all rooms except one where it seems enabled.

@kkarhan @delta @monocles @gajim I have to say I'm enjoying using #Deltachat as my email client, just because it feels similar to the apps I already *also* use (like #Signal, WhatsApp, #Gajim, #Conversations). There's less mental "friction" owing to that familiarity of user interface. It sucks that virtually no one else I (regrettably) still email (they still just love, love, love those free-enough-seeming, "encryption-challenged" gmail addresses) can find an email provider supporting autocrypt... but that lowering of mental friction from Deltachat _alone_ is feeling "worth it".

While I highly appreciate #Thunderbird for its calendar and addressbook (precious CalDAV/CardDAV support), the UI is so "busy" in comparison.
