Hi people! How many users can a Private Group Chat support? And how many users can a Public Channel support.
I know that Telegram rooms support a maximum of 200000 users.
Ge0rG
Paganini: on regular servers, rooms start to get impractical around 1000 users. It's possible to work around that on the server, to some degree

Thanks for your response!
Nobody wants to create things without knowing what those things can or cannot support. Telegram is transparent about this. They explicitly say that their rooms can support a maximum of 200000 users...
As a matter of fact I'm trying to move/migrate the users of some large Telegram rooms to XMPP, so I do need to get this kind of information.

Paganini: for public large groups, you should have a look a pubsub instead of chat (chat is really hard to follow with so many people). As far as I know there a 2 clients supporting this (Movim, and Salut à Toi/Libervia on which I'm working). There is no end-to-end encryption in this case though. Also MIX (future of chat) should fix this, but it's barely implemented at the time (have a look at Tigase software, I think they start to support it).

As a user (not directly involved with XMPP development):
- Wider support for devices, especially older devices. iOS is still somewhat rough, but workable, and Telegram/Signal have long since left older iOS versions unsupported.
- Desktop clients that work independently from mobile clients, but provide equivalent or greater security guarantees.
- Control over identity and data, especially if using a custom domain (some public servers support this).
deuill
Basically, it works now, I know it will continue to work, and that I won't be forced to migrate or lose my data if I need to move to a different server (or stop using chat entirely, in any case).
neshtaxmpphas joined
mathieui
Paganini, from my point of view, the advantages of XMPP in the current messaging kerfluffle are (as an XMPP user and developer for more than a decade, I am obviously not objective though):
- it’s enduring (20 years and counting of existence, it’s here to stay)
- adaptative (the protocol is always evolving to adapt, e.g. the issues with the impracticality of big rooms are being worked on)
- Federated (you don’t have to give up everything if the admin becomes rogue, as it happens in centralized systems such as telegram or signal, worst case is you find another server)
- Provides state of the art encryption for those who desire it
- Plenty of clients if you’re not satisfied with one (but of course that’s also a downside because UX may not be consistent)
goffi
from a dev point of view, it's also very hackable, meaning that you can extend it the way you want with a proper namespace system (i.e. it won't conflict with others)
mathieui
(but e.g. at work I’m forced to use teams, which only has one client which provides a truly awful experience for anyone not using their electron app or chrome, that’s not the case with XMPP)

chronosx88has left

purplebeetroot, so looking at sealed senders (didn’t know about it) and uh:
“To prevent spoofing, clients periodically retrieve a short-lived sender certificate from the service attesting to their identity. The certificate contains the client’s phone number, public identity key, and an expiration timestamp. Clients can include the sender certificate when a message is sent, and receiving clients can easily check its validity.”

1. IP address A requests a sender certificate

Yes. But afaik it is e2ee.
"...the “envelope” containing the sender certificate as well as the message ciphertext is then also encrypted using the sender and recipient identity keys:"

Thought it does the job of sealing the ID (don't know how good) of a user. In xmpp it is known that JID A writes JID B. In signal it is promoted to not know this.
You can't change IP unless using a proxy. Vpn and Tor do that.

With regard to features such as polls: these are generally implemented via bots and the like (at least on Slack etc.), so it's not impossible to add this functionality in where needed.

> With regard to features such as polls: these are generally implemented via bots and the like (at least on Slack etc.), so it's not impossible to add this functionality in where needed.
Right, but the truth is that those functions are not implemented on XMPP, for the time being.
mathieui
Paganini, we have been using poll bots for as long XMPP has existed, approximately
SamWhited
mathieui: are you suggesting that a normal user can turn on a client and create a poll? Because there's a big obvious difference between using a service like telegram or whatever Paganini is talking about and trying to create a poll on XMPP.
Paganini
How a regular user could create a poll here on XMPP?
mathieui
SamWhited, I haven’t used telegram at all, so I don’t know, but e.g. looking at discord, matrix, etc, they appear to also go the bot route
SamWhited
Implementation doesn't matter. Same question: if on matrix I can log in and hit create poll, are you suggesting XMPP does the same thing? The answer is "no, you can't create a poll on the public jabber network easily" right now.
LNJhas left
mathieui
SamWhited, agreed
SamWhited
I dunno if that specific feature is actually a thing we want or not, but just pretending because a bot or an XEP is out there somewhere means we have the same feature as Matrix (or whatever) is probably not helpful to Paganini trying to move his users over.
Paganini
SamWhited: That's right.
SamWhited
I keep thinking that we need some organization aside from the XSF whos job it is to do things like this. Some org to sort of act like a product manager for the public network.

I mean, obviously they can't force clients to comply, but just keeping a compatibility suite that's more specifically geared to the public network, lists of clients and services that support it, etc. might be nice.

As a documentation resource, I think it's fine, but it isn't a vehicle for change
SamWhited

SamWhited
I vaguely remember this launching, and apparently I joined the chatroom at some point, but I haven't seen it in a while
MattJ
Documenting stuff doesn't get people to implement it
MattJ
So I consider Snikket as an implementation of Modern XMPP, and I'm hoping that will be the vehicle for change instead
Andrzejhas left
MattJ
It's also way harder to secure resources and funding for a documentation project, vs. something normal people can actually use
SamWhited
I kind of wonder if it doesn't need a whole service (ie. the way Matrix does it) to make it work, but I'm not sure
MattJ
Lessons learned from Snikket will go into Modern XMPP docs, and I encourage anyone who feels there is stuff not documented or suitable for documenting under the XSF to PR there
SamWhited
I never really understood what Snicket was and didn't realize it had any relation to Modern XMPP too, so it may be a messaging problem
MattJ
It has no formal connection with Modern XMPP other than in my head and actions
SamWhited
(although the Snikket website looks really good)
MattJ
Modern XMPP was about defining a blueprint for everyone to follow, but... hard to make that blueprint a reality :)
SamWhited
Oh snickket does hosting too? That will be nice
MattJ
Snikket has real users, real feedback, and implementation experience. Which all beats a pure documentation project.
SamWhited
yah, nice; the website sort of made me think it was just a docker container and a rebranded conversations and I didn't understand the point at first and just pointed people at it if they were struggling to run prosody and just needed a container they could run easily, but it looks like it's a lot more
jonas’
especially since I hear there’ll be iOS support soon
MattJ
Few people understood the point, but my focus isn't the XMPP community so I didn't care too much
SamWhited
Fair enough
SamWhited
well I love the idea anyways now that I understand a little better; good luck

Hopefully it will all become clear to everyone as it matures

I think that when advertising XMPP we have to put the target audience on the path to choosing good service providers...
One thing I've noticed is that for most people it is very important to be able to send/receive all types of files, including large files (about 100Mb or more). But it turns out that many XMPP service providers only allow the transmission of files up to a maximum of about 3Mb... So I think it would be important to route people to service providers which allow the transmission of large files (even if encrypted), namely through end-to-end transmission.
