@daniel.gultsch.socialThe Fair Tech Summit is coming to an end. Shortly before closing, I gave a quick, two-minute lightning talk on Conversations.
@daniel.gultsch.socialA recording of the talk “Jabber/XMPP: 25 Years of Digital Independence” that I gave at Linux Days in Prague the other day is now available online. Learn why open source is necessary but not sufficient for digital sovereignty and why we need open standards like XMPP […]
@daniel.gultsch.socialMastodon, Element and Conversations on the same slide. What is this, a crossover episode?

@daniel.gultsch.socialI’m in Luxembourg for the Fair Tech Summit and Open Source Conference Luxembourg.
The Fair Tech Summit marks both the conclusion of the Mobifree project and the kickoff of the SuperStack project. Great to meet our partners and friends from F-Droid, /e/OS […]
@daniel.gultsch.socialIf you are in Prague for Linux Days remember to come in early to catch my talk on Jabber/XMPP and 25 Years of Digital Independence. It's the first talk of the day at 10am in room 105.
@daniel.gultsch.social@badrihippo @linuxdays it's acrylic glass and there is a RGB LED strip underneath and you can technically control that too. But it's currently not set up. My idea was to set it up in a way where you text it and then it changes to the Consistent Color Generation of your jid. And the a label that […]
@daniel.gultsch.socialWe've just finished setting up our XMPP stand at LinuxDays (@linuxdays) in Prague. If you are in the area make sure to visit us. We are here all day today and tomorrow (Sunday). We have stickers and buttons!
@daniel.gultsch.socialI just released an update to Conversations that fixes a regression in the accessibility of the attachment selection.
Accessibility is important to me, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused by this. If you notice any accessibility problems, please let me know immediately.

@daniel.gultsch.socialGoogle is raising the minimum SDK version for several core AndroidX libraries to 24 (Android 7). This means that even well-intentioned app developers will have a much harder time supporting Android 6.

Not everyone can or should self-host, but the technology that enables it—federation, open standards, and vendor independence—also allows cooperatives, municipalities, and community groups to run their own infrastructure […]
@daniel.gultsch.socialIm Interesse der Dezentralität gibt es meinen Vortrag „Jabber/XMPP: 25 Jahre Digitale Souveränität“ von den Datenspuren letzte Woche übrigens auch auf meinem PeerTube.
@daniel.gultsch.socialIch hab bei meinem Interview mit Stephanie (@ueckueck) noch einiges darüber gelernt, wie Reichweite im Fediverse funktioniert und was die Vorteile großer Server sind.
Schaut am Wochenende doch mal rein!
Tipp: Funktioniert auch gut als Audio-only-Podcast. 🎧 […]

Now that Conversations is free on Google Play, it should be a lot easier to onboard friends and family onto Jabber/XMPP — the only truly independent messaging solution.
Maybe give it a shot this weekend!

Google finally managed to publish Conversations 2.20.2 last night, after apparently very thoroughly reviewing it for 16 days.
The current version, which has been available on F-Droid for multiple days, is 2.20.3 😂

It took me a moment to get back to writing long-form content, but I’m enjoying it a lot. My last three posts have been XMPP-adjacent, but I think I want to branch out a little bit with my writing.
@daniel.gultsch.socialF-Droid (@fdroidorg) is usually pretty quick with publishing updates these days, and both of my apps are built reproducibly—which means they are signed with my personal key.
If you want an even more direct line to my apps, you can use my personal F-Droid […]

So many f bombs. But legitimately so. Good on you for taking a stand against google, and sharing your app with the world for free. This is a great example of what we all need to be doing.
@ueckueck.dresden.network.ap.brid.gyReposted by @daniel.gultsch.socialGibt es das Fediverse?
@daniel und ich haben diese Woche einen kleinen Videopodcast aufgenommen, in dem ich einige seiner Fragen zum Fediverse beantworte. Zwei Dezentralitäts-Nerds quatschen über dezentrale Social Media - mir hat es richtig Spaß gemacht. Schaut und hört gern mal rein […]
@daniel.gultsch.socialConversations is now permanently available for free on Google Play.
Google doesn’t deserve me and my money anymore.
