I'm not super a fan of using json. I feel we could still use text as the medium. Maybe a modified version to fix any weakness.

JMP: Verify Google Play App Purchase on Your Server
We are preparing for the first-ever Google Play Store launch of Cheogram Android as part of JMP coming out of beta later this year. One of the things we wanted to “just work” for Google Play users is to be able to pay for the app and get their first month of JMP “bundled” into that purchase price, to smooth the common onboarding experience. So how do the JMP servers know that the app communicating with them is running a version of the app bought from Google P … ⌘ Read more
Google Bard is a bit too creative. In another chat, where I asked who “Jan-Lukas Else” is, it also said that I developed the “Quarkus programming language”. But this clearly shows the limitations of language models and the current state of AI. Just because the answers sound clever, they are not always right. ⌘ Read more

JMP: Cheogram Android: Stickers
One feature people ask about from time to time is stickers. Now, “stickers” isn’t really a feature, nor is it even universally agreed what it means, but we’ve been working on some improvements to Cheogram Android (and the Cheogram service) to make some sticker workflows better, released today in 2.12.1-3. This post will mostly talk about those changes and the technical implications; if you just want to see a demo of som … ⌘ Read more

JMP: Writing a Chat Client from Scratch
There are a lot of things that go into building a chat system, such as client, server, and protocol. Even for only making a client there are lots of areas of focus, such as user experience, features, and performance. To keep this post a manageable size, we will just be building a client and will use an existing server and protocol (accessing Jabber network services using the XMPP protocol). We’ll make a practical GUI so we can test things, but not spend too much time on p … ⌘ Read more

Ah git-bug! Ive chatted with the creator when he was working on the graphql parts. Its working with git objects directly sorta like how git-repo does code reviews.

JMP: Privacy and Threat Modelling
One often hears people ask if a product or service is “good for privacy” or if some practice they intend to incorporate is “good enough” for their privacy needs.

trackbar.pl and nickcolor.pl as super-essentials. Also trying window_switcher.pl. Somehow my custom binds for Ctrl+1/2/3/etc. to switch to window 1/2/3/etc. doesn't do anything: { key = "^1"; id = "change_window"; data = "1"; } (I cannot use the default with Alt as this is handled by my window manager). Currently, I'm just cycling with Ctrl+N/P. Other things to solve in the near future:
@xuu@txt.sour.is At least for now I don’t need remote frontends, but who knows what the future brings. :-)
Is there any setting or script to render a line in the chat buffer to indicate the last read messages? I fail to find anything. For irssi it would be the trackbar.pl script. Also, the beep settings seem not to work for what ever reason. It’s just not sending a BEL to my terminal. Hm. :-(
Erlang Solutions: Updates to the MIM Inbox in version 5.1
User interfaces in open protocolsWhen a messaging client starts, it typically presents the user with:
- an inbox
- a summary of chats (in chronological order)
- unread messages in their conversation
- a snippet of the most recent message in the conversation
- information on if a conversation is muted (and if so how long a conversation is muted for)
- other information that users may find useful on their welcome screen
