Yes, this seems like a different situation entirely, Matrix devs were actively seeking patronage from the police ( all while making weird rants against their own userbase) whereas in this case it appears the Duetzch Pigs selected #Conversations_im / XMPP based on their own assessment that it's a secure app/protocol to use.

@princelysum

In case this question is meant seriously:

There are plenty of alternatives to
#WhatsApp

Telegram, @signalapp , @threemaapp , Element (see also @matrix), #Conversations_im, @snikket_im @delta

I can't find anywhere on the website what the upload size limits are for the main conversations.im accounts server. I haven't hit it yet, but it'd be nice to know. Is it possible to tell me? Thanks. #conversations #Conversations_IM #ConversationsIM

Work on #Conversations_im 3.0 has officially begun. 🥳
Funding got cleared in November 2022 but I had customer projects that I couldn’t just stop working on from one day to another.

C3 is a complete architecture overhaul. New database; new UI toolkit; improved XML (de)serialization.

Among other things this means we can have proper Unit Tests now. 😍

Those familiar with how Conversations used to construct stanzas will make the new API (as shown in this test) very happy: https://codeberg.org/iNPUTmice/Conversations/src/commit/924b0b284f2b18f2785cec3ef9b0e4098d163ca7/src/androidTest/java/im/conversations/android/xmpp/TransformationTest.java#L54-L61

We might not have an incentive to do a blog post on every single institution that uses #XMPP but #Conversations_im seems to be doing it's job at the German Federal Police.

I recently got a good deal on a new Google Pixel 6a and today migrated to the new device.

I have to admit I’m always a little surprised when migrating #Conversations_im with Backup+Restore just works 🙊

Tusky (@Tusky) is now notifying me instantly instead of in batches every 20 minutes. I’m not sure I like this 😂

I managed to get 5 people using #XMPP this week because #conversations_im is currently on sale, 100% off. :)
