#iamb — Public Fediverse posts

#hackers been working on RRChat is an #RRC (Reticulum Relay Chat) client — an IRC-like chat experience built on top of the Reticulum decentralized mesh network, fully end-to-end encrypted. RRChat connects to an already-running Reticulum-compatible daemon (rnsd, lnsd, or any compliant implementation) and speaks RRC to a hub, giving you IRC-style chat channels over the mesh. https://sr.ht/~rek2/RRChat/ Please report any bugs if you like #iamb and #vim you will be at home.

How is it that #iamb, a #TUI client, is using better cryptography libraries and is more feature-complete than literally any of the GUI clients available for #matrix? (Sable's probably the only exception)

On a similar note, any good #mastodon clients for the TUI?

#mastodon #fediverse #tui

Does anyone use #iamb as their primary #matrix client? If so, how's that going?

I've been trying to use full GUI clients for a few weeks now and I still greatly dislike them all 😒

I'm trying out #iamb as a terminal client for #matrix and... it works! As in, it actually is serviceable and is able to decrypt past messages and makes sense! https://iamb.chat/ I'm excited.

Es scheint einen halbwegs benutzbaren Client für #Matrix für die Kommandozeile zu geben:

Sure, #elinks isn't built for the modern web, but it serves a purpose. I use #aerc for email, #senpai for irc, #iamb for matrix chat, #slrn for newsgroups and message boards, #ncspot for Spotify, #mpg123 for local media or online radio, and #rbw for my bitwarden client. I really don't need much else. It's not a machine I rely on for serious tasks, but it's covered most of my daily needs. Best of all, without a GUI, it's blazing fast!

I've been enjoying some time on #gopher and #gemini as well.

@pmidden Then there's the "official" #Element. And the console #iamb.
I look in there myself sometimes and it seems that most clients don't care. Others don't like that the main alternative is written in Rust :rust:. Well the vulnerability is kind of hard to exploit and you can use broken ones. At your own risk, of course.

#iamb so far beats down #gomuks in the contest for being my personal #Matrix TUI client.

I mistyped ":chats" as ":cats" in iamb (the terminal #Matrix client), and now I'm low-key disappointed that #iamb doesn't have a ":cats" command. ;)

only realized just now that https://iamb.chat/ merged and released that SSO PR a while ago! 😍 #matrix #iamb

Anyone happen to have experience registering a #matrix user account with #iamb? I didn't see anything in the documentation about this. :(

@alcinnz

I can't answer the first, but for the latter, IRC is still wonderful, but if you want encryption, you might look into XMPP or Matrix, if you haven't tried those.

There are some pretty lightweight matrix servers you can self-host, if you're wanting to, and there are some great lightweight GUI clients like #FluffyChat, #NeoChat, and #Nheko, and at least one really good TUI client, #iamb.

But I honestly feel like #XMPP is the under-utilized option.

Ok, https://iamb.chat is a seriously cool command-line matrix client.

God knows what the 600+ #rust dependencies are for, but #YOLO

(Come at me, #rustbros. I actually kinda like your language, but YOU have to be the one to look yourself in the mirror and say "Yes, I shipped a *command-line* utility that had 600 dependencies" and somehow not break down into tears or manic laughter. #ERMAGHERD)

I was a gomuks user in the past, so recently when setting up Matrix again I decided to try https://iamb.chat and I love it.

It has a very minimal UI. You can set up a layout, exit and by default it will remember it.

Controls are vim-like all the way to macros. You can have tabs for things like rooms, DMs, the room list, and you can further split tabs into panes.

After tweaking the space taken by the usernames on left side of chat, I now have a compact Matrix monitor on my terminal.

An interesting project to keep your eye on is #ElementX
https://element.io/labs/element-x

And I just discovered #iamb, a #matrix client for the terminal, written in #Rust using the #ratatui crate
https://github.com/ulyssa/iamb

@ff7 @stereo @ulyssa i was just looking if there are some others next to #gomuks long time ago i tested alternative cli #matrix clients. and #iamb together with a #vim mindset. its a good fit and it works! also with a straight forward device verification. and later you have split terminal windows or tabs or ... in short: you will feel at home if you like :vsplit ;)

@ulyssa just testing #iamb thats a cool #matrix client. thank you ;)
