it does get annoying
the worst part is when they say something like "use matrix instead!" and you can tell they've never tried to use it themselves
@freon Or then it's just the "Works For Me". (I hate both Matrix and Discord)
@lanodan @freon xmpp only works on my phone. nowhere else. what use is a chat protocol that only works on one device we moved past SMS long ago
@pie @freon At least you have something like Android.

But well, I'm sticking with poezio and gajim on my machines.
Dino is just beautiful UI with crap underneath for now.
@lanodan @freon Dino wont connect to any servers to let me log in :(
@pie @freon Weird… worked fine on my own server.
@lanodan @freon it seems to work on linux, just not mac
@pie @lanodan i settled on telegram. supposedly a russian botnet but i've seen zero convincing evidence, or evidence at all.
@freon @lanodan me too, i like telegram for one on one and small groups
@freon @pie @lanodan telegram is definitely not a Russian botnet and anyone who says so is misguided or prejudiced.

It's created by a guy who left Russia because of their censorship.
@mewmew @lanodan @pie i believed it for a while because i saw it parroted on /g/ so much. privacybros like to make shit up out of thin air
@freon @mewmew @pie Well if you want privacy, Telegram isn't want your want because the security is seriously lax and everything goes to The Cloud.
But compared to stuff like Discord, Google Hangouts, … the client is libre software and API got a specification so you can get a bit of control.

But it's far from what you get with IRC, XMPP, current Fedi, …
@freon True discord will stay this one anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QZMjFC_RgY
