🎂 On Mai 21th 2004, Asterix (Yann Leboulanger) released Gajim 0.1.
💬 "Gajim" is a recursive acronym and stands for: Gajim (is) a Jabber Instant Messenger.
📈 Some stats: Gajim's code repository counts around 18,000 commits, and the issue tracker lists a history of over 11,800 opened issues in total. That's quite some history!
Thanks for your support over the last 20 years (and on to the next 20)! ❤️ :xmpp:
Gajim just made a huge step forward by getting a complete database overhaul 📑 This will be the base for message replies, reactions, and many more features to come 🚀
If you are brave enough to test this using the nightly, please backup your database! 🤖
It's 2024 and the only way to have a linux desktop audibly ping you for notifications in an #xmpp client is to *checks notes* compile your own specially flagged debian flavour of one of the 4 or 5 potential clients?
nothing against gajim, works well but no audio even with a bunch of packages added, love dino it works solid as and stays out of the way but no audio notification
Any solutions to not have to flatpak effectively an extra environment or compile versions that'll munt things? #askFedi
