Les recordamos que nuestros servidores, además de proveer esta distinguida instancia :tootmap:, también aloja un servidor XMPP :xmpp: que es incluso, anterior a la instancia de Mastodon :memeface1:. Es de los primeros servicios que tuvimos en Undernet junto con el correo electrónico :gmail:. XMPP es un sistema de mensajería federado y descentralizado :anarchoheart2:, como Mastodon, donde cada servidor tiene cuentas, y puede agregar cuentas de otros servidores y asi chatear. Existen salas públicas y privadas a las que uno puede unirse o crearlas si no existen. Nuestro admin @gabriel :ombu: ha hecho una recopilación de muchas de estas salas en su blog :wp: --> https://publicar.uy/salas-de-mensajeria-xmpp-en-espanol/ XMPP es un protocolo que existe desde fines de los 90s :computerfairies: y se le han ido agregando cosas, porque es un protocolo modular. Hoy en día se pueden hacer hasta llamadas de audio :radio_handheld: y video :youtube:, compartir imágenes :purple_sunset:, ubicación :google_maps:... etc. Nuestro servidor al igual que Mastodon Uruguay, y todos los servicios de Undernet, están integramente alojados en Uruguay en forma autogestionada e independiente :antel: :ute: :mate: :mate2:🇺🇾 y tiene en total unas 300 cuentas registradas en los dos dominios que administramos que son @undernet.uy y @buzon.uy de las cuales se conectan diariamente unas 70+ :memeface4:. El servidor esta conectado con otros 600 servidores XMPP. Si no lo probaste, podes bajarte un cliente como Conversations, Monocles, Xabber para android, Snikket para iPhone o Gajim y Dino para Lunux :conversations: :gajim: :android: :fdroid: :dino: :apple_inc: :gnu: :tux: e incluso clientes para terminal :crt_w_prompt: y registrar una cuenta en nuestro servidor u otros. Si quieren más información o consejos, pueden dejar un comentario debajo 👇 #undernet #uruguay #xmpp #jabber #autogestión #mensajería #instantánea #mensajes #conversations #android #prosody

So far as far as Discord alternatives go, we can list them here:
IRC(The oldest and still continually used protocol for chatting, but prolly hardest for n00bs to onboard with)
XMPP/Jabber(Second oldest, easier onboarding depending on server)
Matrix(Is fine till you learn about self-hosting your own, cuz that's a real rabbit-hole to fall down in. Also encryption, fun!)
Fluxer(Relatively new, basically straight up copies Old Discord)
Signal(More of a one-to-one private messenger imho, but yeah)
Session(Can be one to many, still untested for me)
SimpleX(Don't know much about this one)
Cwitch(Or this one…)
DeltaChat(Have used this one before, pretty cool tbh)
Briar(More of an emergency thing)
Stoat(Formerly Revolt, interesting one)
Teamspeak(Another older one!)
Jami(I don't know much about this one tbh)
I'm sure I missed others lol.

@Duskwolf
Der #MatrixMessenger scheint einigermaßen zu leben, ich konnte mittlerweile einige Freunde dorthin einladen. Meinerseits dort @kuschelpony:catgirl.cloudGuter Tipp dazu: den Benutzernamen nur in Kleinbuchstaben schreiben, manche Server haben sonst Probleme
#XMPP #Jabber wäre technisch auch sehr empfehlenswert, ist aber leider ziemlich still geworden. Könnte eine zweite Blüte bekommen wenn das in Mastodon integriert wird
Beide funktionieren #DatenSparsam anonym ohne Telefon

## Two Dixie Cups and a piece of string
### Oh my goodness\!
Okay first of all, I use #Matrix and #Jabber - #XMPP w/ #OMEMO, primarily.
I typically don't even regularly give out my email address nowadays, and more and more over the past four years or so, find myself publishing a #Fediverse address for myself too as a contact point.
Most often, if you ask me for my #email address I'll give you my Matrix address.
If someone wants to email me then I figure they can get that from my #PGP fingerprint or #Keyoxide.
If they don't know what a #keyserver is or where any of them are located then I just figure they're to dumb to use email.
Yes. As a technologist, I'm at times, rather arrogant, opinionated, discriminatory, and condescending... But only sometimes. The rest of the time I'm patient, attentive, empathetic, and accommodating.
Basically, if i know you don't know shit I'm a nice guy, yet if you pretend to be an all that jazz hipster know it all, then it's quite likely you'll find that I'm pretty much a full on dikhed. Spelled just like that too.
Beginning in the later eighties I think, and then the nineties they called us #BOFH. That's an acronym for someone who might already have forgotten more than you will ever know. I knew a few old Mainframe engineers with Honeywell and IBM when I was a young programmer - those guys were Gods and could tell you how many wraps of copper to make around a toroid if you had an emergency and needed to make an in the field replacement of your memory - Gods. #SuperFreakyGeeks, having already, back then, forgotten more than you or I will ever know.
They called me #Whizkid, coz I was learning shit that they were never gonna bother with - they're gonna retire soon in Mexico with boats, babes, and beers.
But I digress. I do that.
### Back to secure communications...
When it comes to Signal, I know a lot of you really like it. I have little use for it. It bleeds my DID and farms everyone's contact databases - "bing! Ex stalker bitch girlfriend just joined signal. Say hello!" What the fuck?
Well I guess she's still got me in her contacts lolz. Fuckin' bitch.
### Ummm... Yeah I'll pass.
I actually only use Signal with people who already have my #DID (phone number) anyway.
Recently, a colleague flew a cray cray route to Thailand, via #LAX to #NYC, then #Qatar. Signal works on jetliner's #WiFi too, and isn't dependant on cellular services.
Good choice, but I'm still wondering why his "safety number" changed after he departed #New_York and before arriving in #Thailand - he neither reinstalled nor switched to a new device. But that's another matter.
Sounds a little cloak & dagger fishy to me.
Anyway, I hadn't actually used #Signal in a while, and left it muted for a few months.
To my surprise... #Stories! Yay! Stories!
Wait, what are Stories? You mean like #YouTube or #InstaSPAM? And I'm assuming like they have in #Whaaaasup (never used it, never will)?
Ummm... I just tucked that little nugget of, I guess, good news away, not really knowing even how to process news of the introduction of such a useless fucking feature.
Until now.
Without further adieu, I defer to @how , one of our more prominently distinguished members in the Fediverse community, for his novel, clever, and appropriate recommendation:
