Licaon_Kter: are you saying big cheogram is behind this?

Any attacks happen today or are we in the clear?

benk, oh no you jinxed it, immediately knock on wood

done

hi there

root: go outside and look for a tree

TheCoffeMaker: outside? No sorry, there are too many crazy people out there.

😅

Is there a module or a bot to handle idlers?

What should it so with/to idlers?

ask them to say something, and if they don't kick them

if they haven't spoken a word at all, or in several weeks

that sounds like a bad idea

a lof of the people are lurkers in all platforms

some mucs are run differently and don't appreciate lurking for several months

then you might as well allow member only to join ?

that's the clincher

kicking sort of does nothing because clients use autojoin for bookmarks

only banning can stop them and that seems excessive

How can I deactivate captcha in my MUC? I activated it in Gajim. Can I deactivate it remote, with my mobile phone?

It's probably in the room configuration form, I don't know of any mobile clients (on Android/iOS anyway) that let you access that directly

I think the cheogram app has the xep-50 ad-hoc command support

Yeah, the important part is that it can render data forms (which are sent by the server in response to XEP-0050 commands and MUC configuration)

So it would probably not be too hard to add full MUC configuration support to Cheogram

I'm getting closer to have the motivation to switch from conversations to cheogram

It looks like there's a backup & restore your history & OMEMO keys option that got added to conversations at some point

diane: years ago yes, and Cheogram and the other forks should use it just fine You need to know the current account password as the backup is encrypted.

Excellent.

beware of peacefulashell@chatterboxtown.us

On the RTBL already

Just that bit faster ;)

MattJ, do you have a timestamp for me? it just started in gajim@, and we should have RTBL installed

18:37:37 UTC if my server clock is correct

There should be an entry in the Prosody log when it receives a new entry

thanks! that was actually one minute after I clicked "ban"

Been bating them since :23 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Fyi the spamer is at the gajim room again

So glad my client doesn't show message previews 😟

One shouldn't use clients in open channels that do, I think

Its the same server btw
