@Lorenzorg never tested it.

@frank xmpp is ok but it lacks good iOS apps. Matrix is slooow and consumes a lot of resources server side.

@qualcu Mastodon és molt bo i per la gent lliure 😀 @Zeitzeuge_64

@spla @frank you mean synapse

@kitkat of course. Or Dendrite. @frank

@spla I don't have Apple stuff, but I guess @Monal is pretty good since they secured funding some time ago.

@frank @spla did you try Monal? It should have everything you need.

@Monal last time I tested Monal it was not working properly but I don't remember what was the issue. @frank

@Monal yes, tested it long time ago, is it worth a try now? @frank

@frank @spla yes, Monal we changed a lot. Since 2020 we gradually replaced every part of the app with completely new code. In Monal 5.0 a completely new group/channel implementation was introduced and in 6.0 audio and video calls were added.

Currently we are half part through rewriting the complete ui using Apple's new SwiftUI framework.

You can find the changelog here: https://github.com/monal-im/Monal/releases?page=1

When did you try Monal the last time?

@Monal I'm trying it right now, thank you. Last time I did it was two years ago or so.

@frank

@frank @spla great, let me know if something doesn't work.

We are currently working on a complete rewrite of the chat ui. This will allow us to implement reactions, rich replies, stickers etc.

@Monal thank you. @frank
