Day 3

Well firstly, I messed up some of the tags for Day 2...
my-place.social/display/e59937…
One slightly annoying thing that I forgot on my journey, usb... I could not plug in the phone into the car... it insisted on using some non existing network and would disconnect my network connections.

Anyway, Day 3 though... The only thing of note is, I ran into some issue with #peanutbutter ... I don't know exactly what happened... but I had to do a hard reset due to peanutbutter working but not taking inputs. For all the months I've used peanutbutter.. this is a first. I'm chaulking it up to a random fluke.

Speaking on battery... I'm spoiled. As a #pinephone refugee, I was used to paying extra attention to battery usage. Which is why I've always really dug #tui software (it has zero about how neat I find them as well /s). So, as I turned off suspend for my journey, I plumb ass forgor to turn it back on today... and ish was actually fine... like I used only like 50% of the battery with zero suspending. I didn't do a lot but my activities today:

GPS to a place around the corner
Spend most of the day chatting on #weechat #gomuks and mms/sms. I kept tabs on my M$ apps for work via web apps as well as made a few replies. That said, I missed zero calls (fuck scammers and promote #scambaiting ), I had zero sms or mms get stuck in the modem. We'll see how tomorrow goes with suspend on.

What's the state of #matrix, #xmpp and #IRC as far as #screenReader -accessible clients are concerned? Desktop (Windows, Mac) and mobile (iOS, Android).

Hoping for some input, please feel free to boost. As far as I know:

Matrix does not have a lightweight, fully accessible client for desktop, but one could be modified, such as #gomuks. On mobile, Element has scrolling issues, which is unacceptable for large rooms.

XMPP has accessible desktop clients (I used to run #Adium on the Mac), also #WeeChat. No idea about mobile.

IRC is perhaps the one which everything supports on desktop, from #MirandaIM through Weechat to the old Freedom Chat, which I could probably rewrite if I had to. Also not sure about mobile, but it would definitely need push notifications, because we can't expect people to stay constantly online on the go. #a11y #accessibility

@UlrikeHahn As @Chip_Unicorn says, Element = frontend. Org = New Vector Ltd. In terms of ethics (vs #TyrannyOfConvenience) the main Matrix software is #AGPLv3 [1]; the protocol is open [2]; self-hosting is legal and ethical [3].

As @lavaeolus says, security tends to oppose convenience: there's a learning curve for E2EE.

I like #gomuks terminal; gomuks web is rapidly developing [4].

@T_X Also the bet i made 5y ago is won: how disappointing it seemed at first, it is the power of the communities, the cleverness of the free/libre software developpers and users, and the personal work on tweaking and tinkering that made it over time get way better: more performance, adequation to my own needs, battery life even!

I composed an environment based on the free/libre modem "distro" https://github.com/the-modem-distro/pinephone_modem_sdk, #postmarketOS edge, #sxmo and mostly TUI tools: #tut #aerc #gomuks #links -g

Nice, #TIL that #gomuks now has Ctrl+K shortcut. too. Have not used it for a while .. 🙃
#iamb so far beats down #gomuks in the contest for being my personal #Matrix TUI client.

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.

Introduction - iamb documentation

Documentation for the iamb Matrix client

Клиент для discord которым пользовался почти 2 года - "протух". Перепробывал все доступные клиенты, так ничего и не подошло. Волевым решением решил использовать мост для matrix (рассматривал еще более знакомый irc). Поднимал с помощью https://t2bot.io/discord/ без всякой этой ебатни с созданием ботов. В качестве клиента отлично подошел gomuks.

Еще нашел минималистический matui, но в нём нет возможности удалять сообщения.

@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 ;)
