1. Rivaling clients to Whatsapp.
2. Incredible simplification, people don't want, cannot afford to learn what OMEMO is, "this message has been encoded for another device" is a humongous UX failure.
3. Consistency among clients.
4. Consistent "send voice message" button, consisten "send short video" button, consistent "send live location" button. Go to reason 1.
5. Less FOSS now, paid later projects. Why are most free on F-droid and paid-for in Google Playstore?
6. An iOS client that doesn't look as ugly as Shrek doing yoga.
7. Clip button should only be for attachments, not for everything (Conversations) -

9. Make people aware of how many things are Jabber in disguise (Whatsapp, Grindr, Google Hangouts, etc) with a corporation behind monetising it using the people as the product.
10. Incentives for running servers. In Mastondon we're really good at justifying donating to our admins when they run a decent service.
11. RFCs or XEPs written as easy to read an implement as NIPs.
12. Attached directories. XMPP is directoryless same as email, what about searching people by their Mastodon handle, by their email handle, use WebFinger. -

Monocles for example, need someone to implement OMEMO to WebXDC which is the uniquely interesting feature of DeltaChat. Pixelsocial is incredible for in-group private rolls (could literally take the power away from neighbourhood/thematic facebook groups).
Give her a hand! https://codeberg.org/monocles/monocles_chat/issues/353
I'd be happy as fuck to help any of this projects if they were using Kotlin Multiplatform or the RFCs of XMPP were as understandable as NIPs, but they arent

My partner (du-jour) struggles to configure Conversations because there's no Spanish translations of it. He can't disable its nofications on his watch because of this.
And I would be happy using Monocles if WebXDC worked without cumbersome steps in between (read the issue before this toot). I can follow those steps with @surfhosting because we're tech saavy, but most of humanity isn't. Hence they need Whatsapp simplicity.
UX rule number 1 = if users need a manual you've failed. This is pretty much the reason Apple refries tech better. They are a UX-centred company. It's also why it bores power-users.

#Spanish is the most-spoken EU language worldwide, so #Conversations_im should have a translation.
@daniel, is there e.g. a #weblate instance or similar, where the #freeSoftware and #Jabber community could help?

@debacle @maikel @surfhosting According to https://translate.codeberg.org/projects/conversations/-/es/ the Spanish translation is complete.

Morta durante il TG di SkyTG24.
E non era nemmeno un servizio sul Natale, ma sui viaggi.
E nemmeno la versione originale degli Wham, ma una pessima cover.
A soli 4 giorni dalla meta e dopo essere sopravvissuta stamattina al giro finale di shopping natalizio.
Maledetti voi!!!

@sans_serif_girl e lo so. Ma già non è uno stipendio “normale”. [Nel senso, è sottopagato]

@kaia MINETEST, THAT'S FRIGGING MINEST 8-D
Poor devs, went all the efforts to rename the engine to avoid confusion with minetest the game and everybody started calling Minestest the game Luanti 8-D
