hi is thi the place where i can ask this question: can i estaplish news channels in xmpp similar to those in telegram. pictures,sound,video,puplic joiner can join without restrictions...
-
MattJ
Yes, you can do that

If you want the channel to be read-only (so normal people cannot post) then you may need to use an advanced client to configure the permissions, e.g. Gajim can do it

MattJ: moderated and no voice?
-
MattJ
Sure
-
Licaon_Kter
No, I mean, that's the settings that replicate a "telegram channel"?
-
MattJ
Apart from some UX differences, yes

Thanks for your help. I will see gajim and try to confgure my channel. my next step will be to find a method to automatically replicate some telegram channel on my xmpp channel.

if succeeded then I can publish on telegram channel with my android phone and the xmpp channel will republish automatically. this is my final goal. I will start by establishing the xmpp channel on a good server and copy the news to it manually.

I think matterbridge can probably do what you want, regarding replication of messages

xmppnewsmaker, if you want a hosted solution, then consider a movim instance, e.g. https://movim.eu/ movim simplifies the process of publishing your posts/articles over both normal channel (MUC - multi user channel) as well as pubsub (publish-subscribe) functionality the official movim MUC/channel is movim@conference.movim.eu

Sam@!
How is everybody here dealing with registration? In-band or web-based? What are you using for a captcha? I'm trying to figure out the optimal way to enable public registration without enabling spam.
