02:12:55 nooooooooo 14:40:30 He's ded Jim 14:41:47 Sidenote, Mozilla is adopting Matrox over IRC now for their community. Make what you will of that: https://twitter.com/matrixdotorg/status/1207686810958258183?s=09 14:41:47 [ Matrix on Twitter: "Really excited that Mozilla has selected Matrix, @RiotChat and @ModularIM as the successor to IRC for all their community chat needs! The future will be open - both open source, op ] - twitter.com 14:59:51 disgusting. 16:01:16 y matrix over xmpp? 16:11:52 This is a very nice read from Binance https://www.binance.com/en/blog/414733786553217024/CZ-on-Regulations-Exchanges--Privacy 16:12:06 it's unusual for exchanges to speak so clearly about what they're doing 17:07:20 Makes sense, if they want to help their users understand how it all works 17:09:53 def a good writeup 17:13:19 Hooray, CCS is open! https://ccs.getmonero.org/proposals/sarang-2020-q1.html 17:23:26 sarang: wow "Raised 306.5 of 695 XMR" 19:05:06 asymptotically: Presumably because of bridges, etc 19:05:27 i.e. no need for a hard cutover, people can ease over or keep the IRC running for historical purposes 19:06:59 Sidenote to rehrar: New Vector is hiring Designers for Matrix, so you can get paid to improve the best way you see fit 19:07:04 If you weren't busy already: :P 19:07:13 (https://apply.workable.com/new-vector/j/6CB817C79E/ ) 19:11:25 Plus matrix/Riot is under more development than xmpp 19:12:45 i think you can have XMPP<->IRC bridges but i'm going to guess it's annoying to set up and configure 19:13:45 idk, looking into it, it looks like a poor reimplementation of XMPP because somebody felt that it needed to be hip cool JSON instead of XML 19:14:08 asymptotically: what's the mobile client for xmpp? 19:14:35 there's a really nice one called conversations for android. i don't know about apple though 19:14:42 Avoiding XML is a duty, he should get a medal 19:15:22 asymptotically: it is in fdroid, installing now 19:16:21 asymptotically also, what characteristics does xmpp has that matrix doesn't and vice versa? 19:16:55 i think matrix comes with more. xmpp is really minimal and then things like E2E encryption are built on top of that 19:17:23 downside of that is something like the newest E2E encryption standard thingy isn't supported by most of the clients yet: https://omemo.top/ 19:18:47 Yes, I just installed Conversations and I think it does not have audio and video call 19:20:34 i think you can only send short voice clips, not very useful 19:21:01 Yeah, it looks like it has to be paired with WebRTC according to the official page 19:21:19 there's jingle which is an xmpp extension that google voice used, but i don't know any clients that support it :v 19:21:27 So as a protocol itself it doesn't support video/calls like Matrix protocol does 19:21:33 (https://xmpp.org/uses/webrtc.html) 19:23:21 https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0166.html 19:28:41 For what I'm reading xmpp is very barebones but extendable, using extensions for anything "modern" 19:29:30 Not sure having so many optional parts is that great but xmpp is way older so it could have made sense back then 19:30:03 Yeah, it's arguably kind of the issue with OpenVPN vs WireGuard 19:30:21 And why OpenVPN is arguably much more vulernable than WireGuard 19:30:29 *kind of the same issue
