    So if you don't know prav.app, it is a messaging service inspired by Quicksy, basically our aim with this is to get Indian Non-Technies people to move off from the Whatsapp Monopoly we currently have here, So that they learn about open ecosystem and make their own choices.

  6. We have resumed sending SMS again after turning on Max fraud protection level of Twilio. We will monitor how it goes in the coming days and see if it is enough to stop the bots. Thanks everyone for the help and suggestion. We will consider the other suggestion in the future or if we need to do more right now. #prav #xmpp #sms

  11. @MastKalandar @ProdigalFrog yes, both use #xmpp protocol standard. Other apps like Quicksy, Monocles Chat, Monal and Gajim can be choices to people to talk to #Prav users. I suggest you give xmpp a try, you can request an account from durare.org, another service we run.

  16. Signing up on #Prav is currently broken due to bots requesting OTP without proceeding to the registration.

    We are working on fixing this as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.

  17. We are seeing bots attacking our Prav SMS verification API end point - they request OTP, but don't complete registration.

    So we are forced to stop registrations until we figure out a solution. We have some suggestions already, if you have more ideas or like already proposed suggestions, then please comment here

  18. @codewizard @Torx @rimu @Jerry @prav delta chat uses smtp (same protocol as email), but #prav uses #xmpp. So you can use any xmpp app to talk to prav users.

  19. @codewizard @rimu @Jerry @prav Better than #WhatsApp because we have users privacy as priority unlike them. Their business model depends on collecting personal data. Signal is better than WhatsApp, but it still controlled by a single organization. Prav is part of #XMPP network so people who don't like Prav have choice of using other apps like #Quicksy and still talk to all #Prav users.

  24. #Prav can be installed on #iOS through #Sidestore.

    If you would like to install, here are the steps:

    1. Set up Sidestore at sidestore.io
    2. Add prav.app/SidestoreiOS.json as a source.
    3. Find Prav in SideStore and install it.

    #Apple doesn't allow alternative app stores in #India, so this option is not available for Indian users 🙁

  25. #Prav ist ein freier Messenger, der deine Privatsphäre schützt.

    Für Android erhältst du Prav im Play Store (play.google.com/store/apps/det…) oder in F-Droid (f-droid.org/packages/app.prav.…) und unter iOS ist Prav im Sidestore (sidestore.io) erhältlich.

  27. @tuxicoman @prav indeed taking #xmpp to the masses is another goal of #Prav. So far we have gone to various #FreeSoftware conferences and setup booths. We have active presence on fedi. Eventually we hope to go to other kinds of events as well.

  28. @tuxicoman @prav We are just offering some hand holding to get started with #xmpp. #Prav is ready for iOS too, but #Apple won't accept it in App Store, so people have to take the longer route of #SideStore. We have started the process of involving the users to prioritize missing pieces in #XMPP apps.

  29. @tuxicoman @prav it is very close to #quicksy in current state as we started from quicksy. It offers a choice to users - they can choose either Quicksy or #Prav without considering what their friends are using and users of either app can talk to users of the other app. We made small changes already like changing SMS provider so it works in countries like Nepal and Brazil where Quicksy SMS don't get delivered. We hope to offer custom username option and may eventually get other features.

  35. Thanks to @double_a_runi 's 'how hard can it be attitude' we have fixed a regression in @prav 's contact discovery when we updated our #android app, but did not update the server in sync (both are based on #quicksy).

    So with this, we are set to exit beta and consider ourselves stable / Generally Available soon.

    If you agree with our mission to make #xmpp mainstream with an experience similar to mainstream messaging apps, consider donating at prav.app/donate #prav

  40. Do you have an android phone? Do you use play store? Can you review @prav ?

    We are not asking for 5* reviews for rewards, just provide your honest reviews after trying it. This will help more users to have confidence.

    Currently we have 500+ downloads and 4. 2* average score. Last time we checked, we had 842 users. Your support and participation is crucial as we don't have huge marketing budget like #Meta.

    Also available on #Fdroid and via #SideStore

  41. With persistent hard work by @vaidik_ Prav (@prav) is now available on iPhones!

    Though with Apple rejecting it from App Store, installing it is a bit involved. You will need to setup SideStore.io and then add Prav source prav.app/SidestoreiOS.json

  42. Anyone used #AltStore Classic to sideload apps on #iPhone ? #AskFedi

    #Apple #FreeSoftware #iOS #prav

    @prav was rejected by #Apple from app store saying it is similar to #Quicksy and #Monal. So we are exploring our options to make Prav available to iPhone users. Ideas and help welcome.

    We are also looking at #aptoid and also filing a complaint with Competition Commission. Why should we allow Apple to gatekeep apps on iPhone?
