I think you can use the web version
I think the "desktop app" is also just the web version. So yeah.
I mean, just go from browser. Don't use the app.
Explicitly browser breaking web app
Windows version is native now, I think
Switched to Matrix pretty recently, and it's been surprisingly nice to use
I heard XMPP is better though. Servers are way less hard on resources, its way simpler and just as secure. Decentralization, you can share all sorts of files and all, but video calls are simply done by another provider like Jitsi
I am using both for enough long time,mutlidevice synchronization it's nightmare in xmpp,also usual xmpp isplaintext.So when u wanna use encryptions like omemo so far not always guaranteed that ur encryption key will be delivered to ur new device which u connected.Also u cannot control sessions.So if u would be hacked u would not be notified,and u don't have ability to kick out this dude session.But yes xmpp more light about resources and works faster for now.
Xmpp is long in the tooth, many basic things are missing, like sending a image with a text caption. Or sending a group of photos as an album, instead you can only make many many image posts.
Lots of oh so small things
Re: resources: Dendrite is a full server rewrite for Matrix.
I just have to get it working first...Oh interesting, I'll check it out. I'm hosting my own server and I'm the only user on it, so it's been pretty snappy :P
Fuck monopolies

seriously best thing ever. even allows iMessage on Android. combines pretty much everything you just said into one app on all platforms.
iMessage on android as in android users would have blue bubbles on someone’s iPhone?
If that’s the case then it’s relaying the messages through an iMac or Mac mini somewhere which would require signing into an Apple ID so some third party would have access to all of your chats 💀💀💀
Basically what nothing phone is doing now
+1 for beeper.
Why would I want iMessage on Android?
So, how do you get on telegram without a phone number ?
I thought viber does have a linux version. I distinctly remember it bugging out and filling my storage with avatar copies.
Read the shitty meme again
Ah, right.
Meta consistently proves itself incompetent
Does WhatsApp have a non web version?
On windows it does
It's just a progressive web app, so Meta might as well port it to Linux
Not on Linux
It's Linux - you are supposed to write your own apps/drivers/kernel etc
