Is anyone currently logged in via conversations for Android?

I am using blabber.im.

Monocles Chat here.

I'm on conversations Paul Gupta

I tried joining conversations@conference.siacs.edu (the default channel for the app) and was greeted with "you are not participating" I'm just confused. Joining this channel obviously worked but idk why it isn't working there fully. I can see messages but can't send?

Paul Gupta: The conversations channel is moderated. That's why you get this message. Nevertheless you can follow the chat and if you want to have write access feel free to ask the admins.

Aah. How?

I didn't see a *ask to join* button

You can send a private message to an admin.

or "whisper" as Conversations calls it

> I didn't see a *ask to join* button This maybe worth a feature request 🤔

cheogram has an ask for voice button in moderated rooms

so maybe something similar

MSavoritias (fae,ve): Interesting. Do you know if it is working for every moderated room and how it exactly works? Do all moderators get a hint?

that would be my guess yeah. because cheogram also divides participants based on their priviledges. owners, moderators, participants, muted

but im not sure how it works exactly. the cheogram room discuss@conference.soprani.ca would be the place to ask

Only admins that use a client that understands that gets a hint. Not admins that use conversations for example. But gajim does

Using https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html#requestvoice

ah thats the feature. at least i am using gajim so i can see it :D

Any other clients that support it apart from gajim?

Not entirely sure but maybe Converse.js

but I may be confusing it with some related feature like registering your nickname or somesuch

tkabber, but it's ugly there
