Now that Conversations is free on Google Play, it should be a lot easier to onboard friends and family onto Jabber/XMPP — the only truly independent messaging solution.

Maybe give it a shot this weekend!

Conversations is now permanently available for free on Google Play.

Google doesn’t deserve me and my money anymore.

@daniel I still haven't found a way to find active servers that have registrations open. The ones at list.jabber.at had registration mostly closed.

@mariusor https://providers.xmpp.net/ is the spiritual successor to that list.

The XMPP Providers project offers a curated list of XMPP providers for you to choose from. It’s your choice!

@daniel thank you. 😊 I guess I gave up before finding it.

@daniel Do you have a recommendation for server software?

Daniel Gultsch

@daniel@gultsch.social 15 min. ago

@richardh both #Prosody and #ejabberd work perfectly fine. Both are included in the repositories for all major Linux distributions. Roll a die. It doesn't really matter. Prosody might be a little more accessible if you ever plan on modifying the source code. ejabberd might scale slightly better once you reach 10k+ concurrent users.

@daniel Too late, all of us already are :D
Next step is running a server without s2s for my kids and their friends, but for that I need legal input first.

Any xmpp server you'll recommend new users to create account on?

I still have to figure out how to create invites for my server

@tuxicoman First choice would be your server. Setting up invites shouldn’t be that hard. https://joinjabber.org/tutorials/service/great_invitations/

Second choice our server (conversations.im) honestly. I know that this is a boring answer.

Many thanks @daniel
I can propose this fully secure and reliable working messager with integrated #UnifiedPush service for other apps as solide solution!
