  Something big is coming to XMPP Spaces in Movim 👀! We recently held a fantastic hackathon with @nicoco and developed a new XMPP extension called "Bookmarks Hierarchy." It allows you to seamlessly organize and sort your bookmarks into directories. Plus, Slidge, the amazing XMPP bridge (https://slidge.im/), will soon allow you to perfectly synchronize your Discord, Mattermost, and WhatsApp spaces directly within Movim 😻. Thanks to the magic of XMPP, everything syncs in real ti...

  We've been a little quiet lately 👀, but silence just means we've been heads-down building something exciting. The next Movim release comes with a special surprise 🎁: a fully integrated SFU service, powered by #Galene, that plugs directly into your XMPP server and lets it handle large group calls effortlessly 🌬️. And of course, it will rely on fully standardized XMPP, as always. Fun fact: pair the Movim SFU with @ejabberd@social.process-one.net and your video calls run on a 100% French...

  The past few months have been wild for Movim! We hit our first fundraising goal of €1,700 (covering the basic costs) 🎉, shipped Movim 0.33 "Halley", and held an XMPP hackathon in the French Alps 🇫🇷 ⛰️. Up next: Spaces upgrades, audio rooms 🎙️, better video calls & SFU support.

  Annndddd it's merged (in master). +516 lines added and -2249 lines removed. Because sometimes you can make more with less 😽. So for now you'll be able to join and leave audio and video calls in one click. You can also see who is calling in real-time in all the Groups you joined. 👀 The microphone level has been redesigned and the UI is now refreshing smoothly. 🎙️ Everything is working in full P2P and is based on the XMPP standard. No platform specific protocol. You want to in...

  Something big is coming for audio and video calls in Movim 😯 You will soon be able to see in real time when your contacts are calling each-others in a group call and join whenever you want... leave, and join again. Once everything is stabilized the feature will be added to Spaces. We are this close to have audio (and video) rooms in Spaces 🤏 So, say goodbye to Discord, you'll soon have a fully web-based, Open Source, decentralized and standard calling platform to replace it. ✨ #xmp...

  I was a bit silent the past few days. It's because I was focusing on improving and fixing many features related to Spaces in Movim 😁 Notifications and message counter are now correctly working in Spaces 🔔✨ Some other issues, related to performances and navigation were also fixed along the way 👀 There is also a totally new flow when adding a chatroom or answering an invite. Movim will try to know if the room you are joining is valid and gives you hints about it before adding it to your...

  So, the past few days we focused on fixing numerous bugs in Movim with many fixes in Multi-participants calls and general presences handling. We're slowly getting closer to a proper release, stay tuned ✨ And if you wan't to help us making Movim the best Free Software, decentralized web platform: https://movim.eu/#fund ♥️ #movim #xmpp

  Because free software is also about accessibility, I'm doing some important work in Movim to ensure that the user interface can be navigated using the keyboard only. ♥️ This work also involves proper labeling and description of the page elements for people with visual impairments. 💬 This side project is supported by @nlnet. Thanks to them for making Movim an even better communication platform for everyone. ✨ #xmpp #accessibility #movim #jabber

  The new official Movim stickers pack is out, with our two new mascots in it! 📢 You can already try it out on https://mov.im/ 😸 The stickers are made by the very talented Rimou (https://lematougraphe.fr/) ✨ And one new tiny feature, you can now quick-search for connected users in large chatrooms 👀 #movim #xmpp #discord #stickers

  Some of you may have experienced some authentication issues the past few days on https://mov.im/ 😬 I am currently testing the new scalable architecture. We are reaching -90% of RAM usage but there is some session management optimization that are still a bit unstable. This should be fixed in the upcoming days, and if everything is okay, merged in the main branch ✨ #movim #xmpp #optimisation #ram

  So tonight I merged the multi-sessions per process branch. This is the result of 3 months of intensive work and a complete refactoring of most Movim code to isolate the users sessions in memory. But the result is there, Movim is now scaling way way better memory wise. Attached a screenshot of https://mov.im/ memory graph before and after the change ✨ And now, back to Spaces 👀 #xmpp #movim #discord

  Adding new features while maintaining a simple, compact and coherent UI is always difficult. With the newly introduced Spaces a few things were reworked to ensure a fluid navigation, especially on mobile. I hope that you'll like the result 🫣 #movim #xmpp #discord

  I'm adding the last missing features to the Spaces. Please, don't expect Movim to have all the Discord features in the end 🫣I don't have the time for it and I would prefer to keep things as simple as possible 😸 Anyway you'll be able to pin important Spaces in the sidebar 📍 and select how you want to be notified from it (never, when mentioned or always) 🔔 I'll do a bit of refactoring and stabilization and propose it in the main branch after that.

  The good thing about Movim is that you can also fully self-host it. There is no place like 127.0.0.1 ✨ #movim #selfHosting #discord #meme #xmpp

  RE: https://mastodon.social/@fediversereport/116178002926045553 That's exactly why having a standard that covers all the interactions, clients and servers is essential. https://connectedplaces.online/reports/fr156-share-where/ Movim "API" is XMPP, Mastodon API is Mastodon API, developped by Mastodon and for Mastodon. Only the servers to servers interactions are standardized and specified in ActivityPub. #xmpp #activitypub

  So the Spaces are now merged in Movim main branch! 🎉 The official instance https://mov.im/ has been updated 😸! Do you want to know how it was done? And how it is actually implemented in Movim? I wrote a very detailed blog post about it there: https://mov.im/community/pubsub.movim.eu/Movim/fb46d699-adc1-4fda-a76e-71ca1d246b80 👀 The upcoming days will now be spent on stabilizing and fixing all the bugs we can find 🐛 And as always, if you want to support me in this amazing journey https://movim....

  @debacle @gajim An upcoming XEP, that will help organize Spaces rooms should actually map perfectly the Gajim feature on the server :) But lets focus on the base first 😸
