Good evening, It was great meeting you all. For those who are wondering about joining the XMPP channel showcased at the event this email is for you.
Firstly, pick a client [1], below is what I recommend: Linux: Dino [2] or Gaijim [3] MacOS: Monal IM [4] (from app store) Windows: Gajim [3] For android, Play store versions contain post notifications and are paid, please install fdroid [5] which is an app store of only FOSS apps, nothing proprietary. It also flags spyware and stuff for you to know if an app is tracking you. On fdroid I recommend: Conversations [6] for those who want a minimalist experience, or Monocles Chat [7] if you want a nicer UX and fancy features. After you have installed a client, you need to create an account, which is as simple as picking a server, providing a username and password, and done. Its as easy as that! After please join our group chat for the event, if you do not have the QR code distributed please use the URI below: xmpp:[email protected]?join If you are copying instead of clicking the URI, please copy the following into your XMPP client when joining the channel: [email protected] Done! You will be able to chat and hang out on XMPP, maybe we can discuss doing a second meetup outside of FSF librelocal. The more who join the better chance we could call a meetup :) It was a pleasure meeting you all. Hope to see you again at some point :) -- Polarian Jabber/XMPP: polarian@icebound [1] https://xmpp.org/software/?category=clients [2] https://dino.im/ [3] https://gajim.org/ [4] https://apps.apple.com/us/app/monal-xmpp-chat/id317711500 [5] https://f-droid.org/ [6] https://conversations.im/ [7] https://f-droid.org/packages/de.monocles.chat/ -- GLLUG mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug
