Aria Network - https://aria-net.org

This room is on Matrix (https://matrix.to/#/#lighthouse:aria-net.org) and XMPP

[18:05:50] <kazu> Hello!
[18:05:55] <kazu> I am new to XMPP
[18:06:03] <kazu> I use Matrix and wanted to try this out too
[18:06:22] <kazu> It seems more akin to Hangouts/Signal/Whatsapp/Telegram than Discord
[18:06:38] <kazu> So it seems I could run both concurrently for different use cases
[19:22:31] <immaculate taste> Hey kazu !!
[19:22:40] <immaculate taste> Welcome to the club
[19:51:39] <kazu> Thank you!
[19:51:47] <kazu> This place is a lot faster than Matrix
[19:51:56] <kazu> Feels nice to not have minute long sync
[20:35:11] <immaculate taste> Yea kazu xmpp feels a lot faster
[20:35:25] <immaculate taste> Thats the reason i quit using matrix
[20:35:29] <kazu> My only issue is the lack of client variety and quality
[20:35:49] <kazu> At least on Mobile
[20:35:52] <immaculate taste> No matter what app or service i used it was mad slow
[20:36:00] <kazu> Kaiden and Dino seem great
[20:36:03] <kazu> Gajim as well
[20:36:10] <kazu> But no mobile counterparts is pretty sad
[20:36:22] <immaculate taste> > At least on Mobile
Conversations and monocles chat is what i used
[20:36:39] <immaculate taste> Im using monocles rn
[20:36:44] <kazu> I've seen them, but compared to Matrix clients they feel stuck 10 years in the past
[20:36:47] <immaculate taste> Its pretty modern looking
[20:36:58] <immaculate taste> Yeah i agree fs kazu
[20:37:16] <kazu> I don't wanna shit on the devs, FOSS development is thankless work done in free time
[20:37:22] <immaculate taste> I use dino and gajim on desktop
[20:37:27] <kazu> It just sucks
[20:37:28] <immaculate taste> kazu: yes
[20:37:47] <immaculate taste> 100 agree the ui and ux can be massively improved
[20:38:04] <immaculate taste> Matrix clients are much better in this regard
[20:38:21] <kazu> Other than that the public communities are waaay smaller, and only seem to be tech focused. XMPP seems like something I'd use for a small list of contents.
[20:38:25] <kazu> Which is not really a bad thing.
[20:38:28] <kazu> I like that tbh.
[20:38:35] <immaculate taste> Yeah
[20:38:47] <kazu> I wanna use it more but I cannot find any active non techy groups, so I'll try to get some friends on.
[20:38:56] <immaculate taste> You dont rlly got to be a tech guy tbh tho
[20:39:11] <immaculate taste> But tech is the majority of convos here
[20:39:35] <immaculate taste> Also there are some cookoo ppl here
[20:39:42] <immaculate taste> They say crazy stuff
[20:40:12] <immaculate taste> Ill inv u to an interesting chat
[20:41:09] <immaculate taste> I forgor how to pm in gcs 💀
[20:41:25] <immaculate taste> Just send me a msg kazu
[20:41:41] <immaculate taste> My jid is immaculatetaste@404.city
[20:41:42] <immaculate taste> .
[20:44:42] <billbob> kazu: I am in hear and I no shit all about tec or spelling
[20:45:30] <billbob> But sometimes do say odd shit 👍
[20:45:33] <billbob> A lot
[20:50:22] <immaculate taste> billbob: we love u
[20:50:32] <immaculate taste> Keep saying odd stuff
[20:57:48] <billbob> Been talking about prostate cancer a fare bit , got a mixed response as its way out for some people , I am well into connecting emotional shock to illness , its my day job . apart from building stuff 👍 being very dyslexic doesn't mean anything anymore because of technology, i can study whatever i like which in the past was pretty much impossible, i'm talking about the eighties, I've been catching up, what i found interesting is that i can listen to information in my sleep and absorb it . i don't know if anyone else has tried that but it's really interesting thing to try
[21:04:32] <immaculate taste> xmpp:conversations-offtopic-reloaded@conference.trashserver.net?join
[21:04:52] <immaculate taste> I figured out how to share our loony gc
[21:04:56] <immaculate taste> Come join us
[21:05:24] <immaculate taste> We are currently debating on whether meta will kill the fediverse
