XMPP Service Operators - 2021-05-20

I assume matterbridge needs to be installed on the XMPP server and not just any client/muc mod user who wants to bridge?

Techniclly no

I don't know if it supports it, but there's a generic module for prosody called webhooks

It allows a daemon to emulate users via an api

I wish an equivalent existed for irc

Maybe more info from xmpp:matterbridge@conference.jabber.de

Looks like you can install it wherever, and supply the jid server etc, https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge/wiki/Settings#xmpp

Are there any better options than matterbridge for irc?

biboumi

bioumi is excellent

link https://biboumi.louiz.org/

No, the other way around

Where XMPP is the source of authority

i guess bitlbee?

Bitlbee?

I thought that was a private bouncher

there are some public bitlbees

i used to use https://irc.net

but i'm using it right now to use xmpp from my irc client

Nice

doesn't support omemo and the config is a bit annoying but in general it works pretty well

I think I like biboumi, or rather being able to get on IRC from my xmpp clients

yeah i have a couple users on my server that use that exclusively

i just like my irc client too much and have all the muscle memory there

The last 'client' I was using was thelounge

I still have it up and running

i use weechat

i imagine most folks here would prefer the biboumi setup

I was weechat before hosting the lounge

I like tuis

poezio and profanity haven't scratched the itch well enough for me :P

Does anybody have a known working jingle transfer setup?

And would be willing to help me test jingle transfers

Establishing a secure connection from diebesban.de to spaceboyz.net failed. Certificate hash: 01c8819440d79d88f75686efb5b4857f2e0bf93080cc17216d52fcad9d2bf01d. Error with certificate 0: certificate has expired.

> And would be willing to help me test jingle transfers

we could try tom

if it's still a question. Which client?

Hey there! I would recommend you XMPP server operators, if you haven't already and if your server even has it, to update from a Tor Hidden Service v2 to a v3 soon, because it won't work anymore in a month. Look here for more: https://blog.torproject.org/v2-deprecation-timeline

(An admin told me it was really easy and that they only needed the linked website for it.)

“19:05:21 moparisthebest> at your own domain, what else offers that ?”, we do at JabberFR.

https://jabberfr.org/hebergement/

Link Mauve, users only or also MUCs ?

You can ask for either.

nice! interesting that makes jabberfr and cheogram the only 2 places I know that offer both: 1. public biboumi 2. bring-your-own-domain muc hosting

We do check the DNS setup automatically, after which it sends us an email with what you entered. ✏

lots of IRC channels seem to be wishing for a bring-your-own-domain IRC host at the moment, I don't know of any of those though...

IRC has gotten super easy to self-host with oragono.io

used to be quite a mess with all the different services

interesting, yea I've been running inspircd + atheme for years and it's.. bad, especially atheme

but Oragono comes with the most important stuff build in and runs very nicely on low end hardware

i keep hearing that atheme is better than anope

i've been running anope + inspircd for years and it works fine

give Oragono a try

yea I think it is ben

but that's like saying I'd rather be shot than stabbed

i've tried oragono, but it doesn't have server-linking

ah, true

the migration scripts are all broken and anope works fine for now so shrug

ist that really a commonly used feature for IRC?

for any medium to large network, yes

my network is sub 1000 users rn

they are working on a cluster setup for oragono

but most projects that want to run their own only need/want 1 server

yeah and Oragono scales to 10000 users no problem according to the developers

yep it's great for small to medium scale

https://github.com/oragono/oragono/issues/1532

yeah i've read through that :)

back in the day we used to run 2 nodes and it just caused more headache than a single one

the likelihood 1 of 2 servers goes down is double that of 1 server going down, and with netsplits, equally or more disruptive

10 in our net
