  143. Mill

    Hello.

  144. MattJ

    Ge0rG, yes, everything is hard :/

  145. MattJ

    Hi Mill

  146. Mill

    I live in a very cencored country, I started using Tor recently. Any tips?

  147. jonas’

    https://doc.poez.io/configuration.html

  148. MattJ

    FWIW we're looking at adding more restrictions to nicks in MUC in Prosody (so case differences only would be disallowed, as well as nicks that could be confused due to unicode, etc.)

  149. Mill

    I am connecting through port 9150 which is on tor I think.

  150. Mill

    Any good xmpp servers that don't log?

  151. blabla has joined

  152. Ge0rG

    There is a huge spam problem in Jabber, and servers that don't log typically can't or won't prevent outgoing spam. Trying to be anonymous is hard.

  153. Mill

    There is wallstreetjabber.biz

  154. Mill

    I am not sure if they really don't log

  155. jonas’

    you can never be sure

  156. Guus

    Run your own server if you want to be sure!

  157. Mill

    Well, how can i do that without revealing my location?

  158. MattJ

    Let's break this down - what are you worried about the server logging?

  159. MattJ

    If it's your IP/location, this is already anonymized by tor

  160. Mill

    So I don't have to worry about the logging?

  161. MattJ

    If it's message contents you worry about, use OMEMO or OTR (and make sure you verify your contacts' fingerprints)

  162. Mill

    I added OTR to my client but how to add OMEMO?

  163. lorddavidiii has left

  164. blabla has left

  165. Mill

    And which is better to use?

  166. blabla has joined

  167. MattJ

    What you can't prevent is the XMPP server may log your JID (address) and the JIDs you communicate, so just make sure that address can't be linked to your offline identity

  168. jonas’

    depends on which client you use

  169. lorddavidiii has joined

  170. MattJ

    Both are considered secure, OMEMO tends to work better with XMPP because it supports things like multiple devices

  171. Mill

    Alright, I am using pidgin, how do I add OMEMO to it?

  172. Mill

    Running on a Tor/Socks5 proxy Localhost port 9150

  173. jonas’

    Mill, there are a few crappy plugins to choose from. from my experience, none of them work good.

  174. Mill

    I have OTR installed. If you think pidgin isn't good, what client should I use?

  175. igoose has left

  176. vanitasvitae

    Mill: try gajim or dino

  177. Mill

    And is using localhost and port 9150 safe?

  178. alacer has left

  179. alacer has joined

  180. MattJ

    Yes if all your traffic goes through it. I'm no tor user, I think leaking DNS may be a common issue

  181. Mill

    I just shut tor and It's still working, did I do something wrong?

  182. igoose has joined

  183. jonas’

    do we have protocol to mark a message as "not worthy to create a notification or mark conversation as unread"?

  184. Mill has left

  185. jonas’

    thinking of annotational bot replies to links

  186. Ge0rG

    type=headline :>

  187. MattJ

    jonas’, I'd love that

  188. jonas’

    Ge0rG, in a MUC?

  189. Ge0rG

    Sure, just implement special handling in the MUC

  190. MattJ

    Ge0rG, what about MUC->clients?

  191. Ge0rG

    MattJ: interesting things will happen when a MUC sends type=headline to a client

  192. פ has joined

  193. MattJ

    I'm sure

    Link Mauve, thanks, but am I am really looking for an invalid char, not one that gets mapped into another one

  230. Dele Olajide has left

  231. jonas’

    flow, invalid in *all* parts && easy to type is not going to happen I’m afraid

  232. jonas’

    resourcepart allows pretty much all easy to type things

  233. pdurbin has joined

  234. Dele Olajide has joined

  235. flow

    hmm depends on the definition of easy to type ;)

  236. jonas’

    what’s your use-case?

  237. flow

    jonas’, saving a cropus of JIDs together with their normalized forms of local- domain- and resourcepart

  238. flow

    *corpus

  239. flow

    and I am looking for a chracter which acts as separator of the parts

  240. pdurbin has left

  241. flow

    Right now ASCII's unit separator is the best thing I came up with

  242. jonas’

    newline should work too

  243. jonas’

    pretty sure that’s invalid in all JID parts

  244. jonas’

    or tab maybe?

  245. pdurbin has joined

  246. jonas’

    that might be allowed as input in resourcepart (before normalisation) though

  247. jonas’

    hm, the same might hold for newline

  248. larma has left

  249. flow

    jonas’, newline gets also mapped to space

  250. flow

    in some parts at least

  251. blabla has left

  252. jonas’

    pity

  253. blabla has joined

  254. jonas’

    your best bet is probably using a structured file format with escaping

  255. jonas’

    such as XML or JSON

  256. flow

    jonas’, I tried to avoid that

  257. jonas’

    although I’d suggest to NOT use JSON because its unicode support is terrible

  258. פ has left

  259. jonas’

    flow, you could base64 all the parts

  260. פ has joined

  261. marc_ has joined

  262. jonas’

    or do it like ldif, base64 only those parts which contain meta-characters used in your file format and prefix those with a colon or something ;)

  263. flow

    jonas’, my goal was that the corpus file is directly editable and viewable

  264. larma has joined

  265. blabla has left

  266. alacer has left

    is <thread> still used in <message> ?

  319. jonas’

    jubalh, not really

  320. jonas’

    pdurbin, were you using OMEMO?

  321. Zash

    And/or does your server support archiving / MAM?

  322. pdurbin

    I don't know. Maybe. I'm new to using XMPP again after 10 years off. I do think that perhaps Conversations especially likes to use OMEMO.

  323. jonas’

    yeah, it’s enabled by default by default I think

  324. pdurbin

    How can I tell if my server (FSF's server) supports MAM?

  325. jonas’

    conversations tells you that, check the account settings, three-dot-menu -> show server details or something like that

  326. jubalh

    jonas’, what was it ever used for? i dont quite get how it woul be presented visually in a client

  327. jonas’

    jubalh, other chat systems do have the notion of threads

  328. pdurbin

    For the FSF server it says "XEP-0313: MAM unavailable." :(

  329. jubalh

    jonas’, emails yeah, but was there any xmpp client having this? what did it look like?

  337. jonas’

    no, there was no XMPP client

  338. jonas’

    as far as I know

  339. jonas’

    zulip is a chat system (which is not XMPP) does have threads

  340. Kev

    Process One's allowed concurrent discussion threads.

  341. jubalh

    I see, thanks. So it was more like in the original spec <thread> was described but this was actually never used/implemented

  342. jonas’

    zulip is a chat system (which is not XMPP) which does have threads

  343. Kev

    I remember them making a big deal about it at the time.

  344. Nekit has left

  345. jubalh

    I see, I'll have to look that up

  346. Zash

    XMPP/Jabber was supposed to bridge all the various chat systems together, and thus needed a way to transport thread info from those.

  347. Nekit has joined

  348. jubalh

    ok, makes sense. i just read about it in "practical xmpp" and it sounded like it was a thing in XMPP IM. but now I understand what was meant

  349. Douglas Terabyte has joined
