So I never could get on with Matrix. It's slow, the clients are annoying, and the servers are hard to run. Back to #xmpp it is! Feel free to add me for some old school instant messaging: fastfinge@im.interfree.ca. #jabber
@pixelate@jonathan859 It's so refreshing to use a thing that's not a bloated web app honestly. And if you set up the contact list for blind folks during install it's fully accessible. Even reads out messages as they come in.
@fastfinge@pixelate@jonathan859@FreakyFwoof you know I was looking for that thing so I could at least do the base stuff and then add whatsApp discord and steam to the plugins.
@fastfinge@FreakyFwoof@pixelate@jonathan859 How well does it handle things like discord. Honestly discord's interface is what's keeping me from doing more with it. I'm on the hearthstone access server and a few other ones and would love to interact more but gah, discord.
@MariahL@FreakyFwoof@pixelate@jonathan859 So it handles them pretty well. The problem is the awful hCaptcha thing. As usual with discord. If it fails, you need to log in with your browser, do the captcha crap, then log in again with Miranda, and it should work.
@MariahL@FreakyFwoof@pixelate@jonathan859 Amusingly Facebook is the only thing I can't get working. Discord, Teams, Steam, XMPP, Whatsapp, everything else is fine. But Facebook just won't sign in.
@fastfinge@MariahL@FreakyFwoof@pixelate@jonathan859 Holy hell I remember briefly using Miranda back in the day. I may need to give this a look if it supports whatsapp and stuff. Anything I need to be aware of when setting that stuff up? I'm not that familiar with xmpp things and would hate to break the universe.
