> I legit like the idea of snikket, but then it looks like you can only use it on Android and nowhere else More like, "looks like you need to be a sysadmin (or already be a user in which case none of it matters)"

More like "you need a sysadmin in your social circle or use a hosted instance"

Isn't Snikket the one that is supposed to be easy to use for non-tech-savvy users, piggybacking on existing phone contacts? I see it's invite-only though. But why would you need a sysadmin for that anyway?

defanor: AFAICT, snikket want to make it easy to host servers at local scale MattJ: what's there to help someone who just got to know about snikket on the internet to "discover" sysadmins he/she may know?

If you self-host it, you still need a bit of sysadmin know-how.

But the required skill level is certainly meant to be lower than for prosody, which sometimes feels like it's too easy 😕

defanor: Snikket doesn't use phone contacts, you might be thinking of Quicksy

The Snikket model is to make it easy for someone to set up a server for a social group and onboard them all easily

Self-hosting is made as easy as possible for someone with basic sysadmin skills, and for anyone else there is a hosted service

Ah, indeed.

MattJ: could be great to have a "find servers and communities near you" feature

Maybe

I'm more aiming for servers that have real social connections between users

none of prosody.im, 404.city, xmpp.org, are replying to me <proceed/> after <starttls/>, instead i get </stream>. Not sure what I'm messing up.

Can you show an XML dump of what you send and receive?

nvm, i made the same mistake i did yesterday LOL hahahaha. My brain doesn't like that I'm sending just open tag and I keep ending it with "/>", which of course ends the stream.

sry 4 wasting ur time

alright awesome, i'm able to negotiate and starttls with a receiving entity now
