    Hi. I'll probably be working on this these days: > integrating XMPP communication into a Matrix server such that external XMPP accounts can be used and managed from Matrix, even by multiple Matrix users

  2. Link Mauve

    franco, I don’t think I quite understand what you mean by that.

    Sounds like it would be built into a given matrix server. Like synapse or conduit

  5. jjj333_p (any pronouns)

    a la the ejabberd matrix integration?

  6. jjj333_p (any pronouns)

    > <moparisthebest> > maybe you want 2 different nicks ? (is probably the reason if I had to guess... I doubt anyone actually wants 2 different nicks with the same avatar) I use that often. ↺

    Even three or more.

    It also can be used to flood the participants list with some wall of text without even spawning multiple accounts if I don't have voice.

    > so a bridge? yeah, in the form of a Matrix Application Service

    > idk im wary of any matrix "support" of xmpp, after bifrost and theyve basically tried to eee everything I'm also not very fond of Matrix, it's a paid internship of sorts

  13. fpyrih

    But I'm an XMPP fan and I'm happy that at least I get to learn to develop that side too

  14. fpyrih

    I run an ejabberd instance for the CompSci dpt of my Uni

    everyone i know heard of matrix but everyone either doesnt know xmpp or is surprised it didnt die

    We need to improve XMPP's marketing :P

  18. singpolyma

    XMPP is a protocol I'm not sure it makes sense to market that. Usually projects or products get marketing

  19. jjj333_p (any pronouns)

    i mean even for matrix many people just think its "element"

  20. singpolyma

    As it should be

    > XMPP is a protocol I'm not sure it makes sense to market that. Usually projects or products get marketing Ah yeah, sure. Like Snikket, Quicksy and Prav do, I think

  22. singpolyma

    Right
