Modern XMPP project discussion - 2022-01-30


  1. qwestion

    Hi, i tried starting a discussion of status.im and its tech stack (mainly libp2p devp2p and waku, their mod of whisper protocol). Is it off topic here too? Where else can we discuss tech of collectin competing tools without there being a not invented here mentality? Some external tech could be decided to be integrated into xmpp if properly audited etc.

    If not xmpp:jdev@muc.xmpp.org?join then maybe a new, generic messenger-dev channel?

    qwestion: its crytocurrency garbage. Its not worth considering. The app itself that is. Briar has a p2p protocol if you wanna read about that.

  6. qwestion

    msavoritias: briar lacks rooms

  7. qwestion

    Public ones

  8. msavoritias

  9. msavoritias

    Ah i get what you meant. Yeah it diesnt have this kind of rooms. Although irc would be better for this purpose. Or xmpp

    Briar uses cryptocurrencies ? Not sure I got what you meant

  11. MattJ

    No, pretty sure the statement was that even if Briar didn't have rooms, something built on cryptocurrency wouldn't be an option 🙂

    > Status is a secure messaging app, crypto wallet, and Web3 browser built with state of the art technology. Oh my, buzzwords
