@dcatoffm Please do not use c0nnect. This is an outdated fork of #Conversations_im with several severe security issues (simply due the fact the developers haven't kept up with fixes I made to Conversations over the years.)
These days Conversations and aTalk are the only actively maintained Android clients that aren't just bad copies of something else.
In terms of calls not working this does depend on your server (and network situation)
Try conversations.im (the server) for example.
Testing GNU Taler at #Datenspuren was fun. And by fun I mean mostly unspectacular. It just worked. I scanned a QR code. I got some Kolle Mate.
I think some sort of GNU Taler integration into #Conversations_im would be pretty cool.
If you would like to integrate Taler into Conversations there are currently funding opportunities available¹ from @nlnet and both the Taler developer as well as myself are happy to help with scoping.

Two minor nitpicks on my GNU Taler experience. (And the fact that I’m complaining about those should be taken as an indication on how well the experiment went otherwise.)
• From checkout (by the merchant) to creation of the QR Code it sometimes took a little bit too long (seconds instead of instant). I think it round trips to the server and maybe the network was slow.
• The wallet app on Android looks very plain and boring. If we integrate this into #Conversations_im it needs to look cooler.

I just bought 20 envelopes and stamps, and I'm packing them with 5x #Conversations_im, 5x #OMEMO, and 5x #XMPP each.
Send me an email if you want one. Put 'Stickers' in the subject so I can filter. While supplies last, obviously. (Though I'm more limited on the stamps than the stickers.)
According to Google, #Conversations_im is now also collecting users’ email addresses.
Pretty much the exact same thing that happened to Quicksy about a month ago¹ is now also happening to Conversations.
An app update I submitted ~48 hours ago passed review without any issues. A subsequent update just now, which contained very minor bug fixes, was rejected because I failed to declare that I’m collecting email addresses.
I’m so tired of this bullshit.

Every new #Conversations_im release involves testing on the four major #XMPP servers and on devices as old as this 10-year old Nexus 5.

The @dino and #Conversations_im developers have a booth at @FrOSCon. Come find us to talk about #XMPP and grab some merch.

The #Conversations_im release that was rejected yesterday is now live on the Google Play beta channel.
A late addition to the 2.19.0-beta release is message moderation for public channels, giving moderators the ability to delete spam messages.

#Conversations_im esta gratuito unas veces por año como promoción. Desde navidad y año nuevo y el primero de mayo, creo.
#Quicksy siempre esta gratuito, #Snikket también.
Igual esta mejor usar #FDroid por @fdroidorg 🙂
For the next release of #Conversations_im I’m switching the default for showing all messages, including sent ones, left aligned, to 'on' for all tablets.
Combine this with disabling 'Colorful chat bubbles' and this looks pretty clean and almost like a regular desktop app.
This post is also a reminder to existing tablet users that those two settings exist. Too bad there aren’t that many of you.
