XMPP Service Operators - 2022-01-07

Since it states, its build upon conversejs, I think the answer is yes.. Need bosh or websocket I would guess.. Just try it?

tried it, got a blank page, and nothing of use in the browser's console

I would imagine that since websockets are not listed in dig's output, I'm out of luck for now?

$ dig -t SRV _xmpp-client._tcp.jabber.ru ; <<>> DiG 9.16.23 <<>> -t SRV _xmpp-client._tcp.jabber.ru ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 50731 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 3 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;_xmpp-client._tcp.jabber.ru.

ah, my mistake, should've used "dig -t txt _xmppconnect.jabber.ru"

actually, server has both ws and bosh support -- at least, DNS records are there

ru_maniac: there are two ways of advertising BOSH/WS support (both in the XEP). The DNS one is generally less useful because web apps can't make arbitrary DNS queries

well, as far as I can tell, there's a valid announce for jabber.ru

https://jabber.ru/.well-known/host-meta.json

(the same goes for host-meta without an extension)

If you're not in a rush, file an issue on Github and I'll look into it at some point in the coming weeks

MattJ: no rush at all, I'll post an issue once I'll check everything again

As I was saying yesterday, there are many things that still need work on the migrator. A blank page is obviously not something that should happen in any case :)

But it was a rushed prototype that did the job it was initially built for. Just need to make it more robust and user-friendly.

I totally understand

I've posted an issue, with some browser console output, hope it'll help

Is there any real solution to the Changeur problem other than just crowding them out with other users and moderating vulnerable chats?

don't feed the troll?

You kinda feed them everytime. PMs are disabled in Offtopic just for this reason, so there's no invisible abuse.

> You kinda feed them everytime. I deeply concur, *everytime*.

Yes, you are not obligated to respond even if they talk $hit. ✏
