I have a vague memory of there being an XMPP to mark a message as important that I associated with a feature in MSN Messenger back in the day where another user could hit a button over and over and your client would beep at you or something to get your attention. It was very irritating. Is there an equivalent XMPP or did I imagine it?

Definitely not that. This was (I thought) a single thing and was more like a 'poke' designed to get someones attention.

(but not the joke xep by that name)

ahh, nevermind, that made me think of a search term I hadn't tried which came up with XEP-0224: Attention, I think this was it

moparisthebest, 👍️ to you for `mod_alias`

junaid: 👍

Is there an XMPP echo bot available somewhere I can test 1:1 chats against? one that just repeats back what i say or so

Jonas' SED echo bot?

https://lab.louiz.org/poezio/slixmpp/-/blob/master/examples/echo_client.py maybe

Well, one that is running now, i mean. otherwise I'll just have to figure out what my test account login was... :)

nephele: It's not an echo bot but xmpp:wttr@mdosch.de will reply. 🙂

A different kind of bot? :)

Interface to wttr.in?

ah, that would do fine, thanks

> Interface to wttr.in? Yeah.

Also, any MUC is an echobot if you squint at it just right 😉

Zash: too bad my codepath works for MUC!

Thanks, fixed my code.
