- Name/IRC nick: Frank Paul Silye (frankps)
- Topic: Chat protocols
- Some details about the topic:
- For me phones are mainly for communication, photos and reading (news etc), and I try to only use native apps.
- What initiatives are ongoing for chat clients by Jolla and the community?
- What projects are active?
- What should we focus on improving (bug fixes, new functionality and translations) before the new phone and new community members arrive?
- Examples on clients:
- SailfishOS has a pretty good Nextcloud implementation, but lacks a decent Nextcloud Talk client. It was last updated in Dec 2022.
- Europe seems to go for Matrix. There are some development on Sailtrix, but it lacks a lot of functionality (as a good encryption implementation). It was last updated in Dec 2025.
- The Mattermost client has not been updated since 2021, but is still possible to use.
- The XMPP implementation has not gotten love for years.
- Signal - Whisperfish is actively maintained.
- Where do Jolla want to go?
- Where do the community want to go?
- Approx. time needed: 10 minutes
- Substitute (optional): I will not be present
