I mostly wanted to share loathers blogpost in which he describes how easy it was for him to create a new client because the api of dc core is easy to understand.

@feld

Do you already know

@deltatouch (ubuntu touch client) would be worth mentioning, especially with the blogpost from @lk108 : https://delta.chat/en/2023-07-02-deltatouch

Arcane chat is technically a soft-fork of the android client with special patches and extra features by @adbenitez

@feld @devSJR well once you add the file storage provider in the settings then you can send larger files, like it could ask you when you attach a file that is bigger than 10mb.

A email hosted could also bring out a paid whitelabled version of delta chat that has a fileserver pre-set.

You could also share those presets (server address and your credentials) over qr code or special link with your friends.

@feld I have a concept for link previews without the security issues of capturing ip addresses: basically make the sender fetch and send the link thumbnail and info

@feld @devSJR there were ideas to support uploading to some kind of file server from dc directly. would not be that complex, maybe like video chat links you could add a fileserver instance.

I personally think chatmail shouldn't offer free file hosting. Storing large files is expensive and anonymous large file uploads could be attractive for criminals.

So should be bring your own fileserver/nextcloud whatever or buy storage.

I have a #Fediverse #ActivityPub question:
Why doesn't my client ( #mastodon or #pixelfed ) automatically load the comments from the original page so that all comments are visible?
Is there a technical reason?

What's the best #XMPP client most representative of what #XMPP is? :xmpp:

The ones I tried so far didn't manage to convince me with their #UI and #UX so I'd like to try what you think are the best examples.

Since when do you know about #deltachat ?

What was your point where you said "wow, I can now actually use it (since my favourite feature was finally implement)"?

I estimate for most people it was the introduction of #chatmail (instant profile creation) and reliable #push_notifications

I'm making big progress on the #tauri version of #deltachat_desktop

So far it only takes 38 mb 📦 (78mb installed) in package size instead of the 150mb 📦(323mb installed) of the Delta Chat Desktop #electron version.

I'll keep you updated in this thread.

Thanks to #nlnet & #ngi0_entrust for funding this project: https://nlnet.nl/project/DeltaTauri/.

@dansup you could try to delay that message by doing the first local network request after asking the user frist explaining what it is for.

To give more context to users, so they are not confused.

AFAIK this is not a permission like the others where you can insert a reason string in the plist.
