  5. Douglas Terabyte

    However many XEPs need to be written to make an XMPP server speak to Spacebar are needed

    For those that don't have the context, Spacebar is a free, open source, and self-hostable attempt at 1:1 reverse engineering of Discord's protocol and API. Please consider joining and assisting in development. I am currently trying to assist the main dev set up a Prosody server so that the main Spacebar server can be eventually be peered with the XMPP network. Here is the Discord server link where we are currently holding the group voice call. https://discord.gg/xmfAepRKzP ✎

    this is probably what is best to use with a Typescript app like the Spacebar server: https://github.com/xmppjs/xmpp.js/tree/main/packages/component

    I'm happy to help, and happy to have a voice call this week, but I'd rather not use Discord for that
