I think as with so many of Google's dark patterns, this won't destroy the "ROMs" outright, but it will make things slowly more and more inconvenient such that it squeezes most people out and either back to Vanilla Android (disgusting) or iPhone (merely horrific).
If I understood SIP better, I might try to set up something like #linphone using a device like a Hackberry Pi and the Calyx institute's unlimited MiFi yearly plan.
#SIP ist Voodoo! Mein Versuch, die Hardware-Telefone inklusive oller #FritzBox loszuwerden, ist ein steiniger Weg.
#linphone unter #Android war noch halbwegs einfach und ist seit einer Woche im stabilen Testbetrieb.
Graue Haare macht(e) mir #GnomeCalls unter #Fedora. Da ging tagelang gar nichts, bis ich irgendwann auf den Gedanken gekommen bin, es mal auf dem #librem5 zu probieren. Da taten exakt die selben Parameter sofort.
Jetzt geht es auch mit Fedora, aber ich hab nix ausprobiert, was ich zuvor nicht schon x-mal vergeblich getestet hatte. Dafür geht es gerade auf dem librem5 nicht mehr. Kein Schimmer, was da los ist.

Leider habe ich keine vertrauenswürdige Wanze. Die meisten Androids hier im Haus sind vom Softwarestand hoffnungslos veraltet - quasi ab Werk. Da gibt es kaum #Nachhaltigkeit, rühmliche Ausnahme ist das #Fairphone meiner Frau.
Trotzdem ist das eine valide Option, ich habe soeben #Linphone via #F-Droid installiert und erfolgreich getestet.
Ist ja bald Weihnachten, vielleicht gibt es ja auch für mich ein Fairphone...
At work, I currently face the challenge of finding a Linux softphone I can use with a 3CX PBX.
With sipgate we used Linphone, which worked better than sipgate's Softphone or CLINQ apps. But with 3CX the best I could achieve is registering the softphone. With Linphone I can initiate calls but as soon as I pick up the connection gets terminated by the remote side again (at least that's what Linphone says).
I tried Blink, which at least doesn't terminate immediately. But I don't get any sound, on neither end. I can hear recordings originating from the PBX, though. The codec negotiation works, too, as I went through each codec individually.
With Jami and GNOME Calls I can't even register the softphone with the PBX.
@lealternative
It seems so: can't call PSTN with #Linphone and #CheapVoip account. 🤬
@kkarhan @monocles @Stuxhost @delta Thank you for your valuable input! It's always enlightening to hear different perspectives on communication tools.
#Linphone Firstly, I appreciate the mention of Linphone. It is indeed a great tool, and I should have included it in my list. Linphone stands out for its versatility and strong support for various communication protocols, making it a robust option for both personal and professional use.
#DeltaChat is new to me, and I am eager to give it a try. However, I am curious: is it just another XMPP client, or does it offer unique features that set it apart? Generally, I prefer les feature-rich clients because I often use just simple text and voice communication. For my personal use case, XMPP is fine when it is compatible with TTS (Text-to-Speech). You're right that IRC and XMPP have their strengths, but I am always on the lookout for tools that I can offer to regular users.
#Signal and Session are both backed by single entities but prioritize user privacy. Personally, I don't have enough experience to delve deeply into the pros and cons of Signal and Session. A significant limitation of Signal is that I can't build the app from source code, and as far as I know, there is no real way to run it on a server OS—it's only available on iOS, Android, and via Waydroid on Linux, with wayland GUI. At least Session is working on x86 architectures. In general, I think both are useful for mainstream users due to their familiar interfaces and ease of use. While Signal and Session do a good job with privacy, they may not be the most secure options, and they certainly don't rank high on the Free Software scale. Would you agree with my evaluation, or could you elaborate on your criticism?
#Matrix is designed to be decentralized and open, allowing users to host their own servers. This decentralization provides greater control over data and enhances privacy. Comparing Matrix to XMPP+OMEMO might oversimplify its capabilities, as Matrix offers advanced features like cross-platform interoperability and robust end-to-end encryption. It's open-source, and I haven't seen any obvious problems with it. Could you elaborate on your thoughts about Matrix?
@debby #Mumble, #IRC, #XMPP (+OMEMO = @gajim / #monoclesChat) & #Linphone (#SIP / #VoIP) are the better options. #NextcloudTalk also exist and @monocles as well as @Stuxhost offer that.
#Signal and #Session are #proprietary, #centralized, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider solutions!
And #Matrix is just a shittier #XMPP+#OMEMO. Give @delta / #DeltaChat a try instead.
OfC #JitsiMeet and #WebCall are also great!

@KickDownCH nickt zustimmend
Gibt ohnehin bessere Optionen als #Skype seit langem..
Und damit meine ich nicht die nächste #Enshittification aka. #discord & #zoom, sondern #WebCall, #JitsiMeet, #NextcloudTalk, #SIP / #VoIP (#Linphone) ...
@theverge @tech-news-theverge yeah...
Meanwhile I recommend migrating to #WebRTC like #JitsiMeet, #WebCall and espechally classic #SIP / #VoIP like #Linphone!
This week in #FDroid (TWIF) is live:
* #NLNet funds more projects
* #ElementX fixes a #CVE
* #GadgetBridge offline #GPX maps & headphones
* #Linphone #SIP build fix
* v8 #Mindustry beta
* more #KeyMapper features
* #WikiReader improvements
* #OpenCamera preview shots, lens selector, #UltraHDR
+ 15 new apps
+ 199 updates
Would appreciate any help from those with expertise in VoIP, specifically Linphone. Linphone works flawlessly on my desktop/laptop, however the Android App only works on outbound calls. On inbound calls the caller can hear me but I can't hear them. The Zoiper android app works absolutely fine for both inbound and outbound calls but prefer to use Linphone if I can solve the inbound call issue. Would appreciate any suggestions. #VoIP #Linphone #Android #Zoiper #AskFedi
#Linphone 6.0 est désormais disponible sur #Android ! 🚀
- Un nouveau design : repensé avec des experts en UI/UX pour une navigation plus agréable.
- Authentification unifiée (SSO) : simplifie l’intégration avec votre système d’information.
- FEC activée : meilleure qualité vidéo, même avec un réseau instable.
- Multi-comptes optimisé : nav. simplifiée entre identités pro et personnelles.
À noter : Bientôt sur F-Droid et Desktop, iOS en bêta.
Either am stupid or did #Linphone basically memory-holed #LinphoneWeb and all #SourceCode for it?
No #git or anything...
@herrorange Already existing options do that better than the old #SILK codec.
Asking the wisdom of the crowd. Can anybody recommend a #VoIP provider that offers a #Swiss mobile phone number, including calls and SMS? Ideally something I can use with a FOSS app like #linphone but for this use case a proprietary app (from Play Store) is also fine. I tried #Telnix but they don't have Swiss mobile numbers, only landline. Thanks!
