Re: Unofficial PyBitmessage port to run with Python3 and PyQt5
Good day, 711 Spooky Mart! Congratulations and thank you for investing efforts to enhance PyBitmessage, as it is an important telecommunication mean . I use Arch Linux, and I would be happy to help you to test. I have several tasks with Python, mostly on XMPP, so I am not sure I would be available soon to help with coding.

Re: BitChan (python project)
Greetings, 711! This is very good! Do you know of Plebbit? It might be good to interoperate with Plebbit too. https://plebbit.com/ Kind regards, Schimon On Thu, 5 Sep 2024 04:53:05 - 711 Spooky Mart via Python-list wrote: > from https://github.com/813492291816/BitChan > > BitChan is a decentralized anonymous imageboard inspired by BitBoard > and built on top of Bitmessage with Tor, I2P, and GnuPG. > > BitChan solves a number of security and free speech problems that have > plagued most imageboards.

Re: PyBitmessage is not dead. Ignore the FUD.
Greetings! I am interested in adding support for Bitmessage to Slixfeed news bot. Support is currently provided to XMPP and it will be extended to Email, IRC and Session. https://git.xmpp-it.net/sch/Slixfeed Schimon On Thu, 5 Sep 2024 04:40:10 - 711 Spooky Mart via Python-list wrote: > from [chan] bitmessage > > PyBitmessage is not dead.

Re: Python3 Fork of BMWrapper
Good day, 711 Spooky Mart! Did you consider to add support for IRC or XMPP too?
