#Prosody

2026-02-19

I set SRV records for _xmpps-{client,server}._tcp.example.org. Prosody docs don't mention those anymore (but other websites do) and `prosodyctl` complains about "unknown Direct TLS port". Are they deprecated? Do I need them or can I make use of them at least?

I'm configuring Prosody, following the docs the best I can. When I set some SRV records for example.org to be XMPP served by prosody.example.org, does the certificate need to be issued to example.org or to prosody.example.org or to both?

TIL that Black South Africans seem to say it 'TanZAnia', but White South Africans seem to say it 'TANzania', and of course I learned the WSA version but I like the BSA version better?

also, I've heard it said now by i.e. 7 speakers so I could be wrong about the split...anyhoo...

How do you say 'Tanzania'?

Mitte/Ende der 1990er mal ein bisschen IRC, in den 2000ern testweise #Jabber (mein antiquarischer @jabberdotorg Account existiert noch!), aber beides schnell wieder eingeschlafen, zugunsten von SMS.

Dann wollten wir ≈ 2014 Chat in der Firma und haben uns für Jabber (#Prosody) entschieden. Seitdem nutze ich es viel, auch privat. IRC, SMS und Matrix via #XMPP gateways (#biboumi, #sms4you, #slidge).

Alles andere nie probiert:

Yes, #prosody by @prosodyim is nice. To follow a few public Matrix rooms from my #Jabber client, I use #slidge by @nicoco as bridge.

Does anyone know of an XMPP echo bot address I can have a conversation with, to test my newly installed #prosody instance?

@amd #Prosody is like a box of LEGO®, perfect for "Build your own #XMPP server adventures"!

#Snikket is like if someone assembled those pieces, added a touch of mobile apps and unified branding, all glued together in a productified box!

#snikket_im is something like a preconfigured #prosody for easy hosting using docker.

If you want it easy, no public registrations but an invitationbased onboarding experience, Snikket is the way to go.

If you want to configure everything on your own: prosody or #ejabberd might be an option.

If I wanted to try self hosting #xmpp what should I look at these days?

It was #prosody once upon a time but now I see things like #snikket and other stuff out there.

What say the actual xmpp users out there?

Uh, uh, uwu!

The guide I’ve been working on all week just went online!

It’s meant to help folks using the new invite feature.

You’re admin of an XMPP server and you (just) enabled mod_invites? Then this is for you! Share that link with your users so they can spread the fun!

A short follow-up after my last complaint about #Discord and #Enshittification.

I've got my #Prosody server online and it has not caught fire yet.

It's still a "walled garden" as I want to verify all my stuff before opening up. (It will remain an invitation only server)

Getting to configure the full stack from the OS to DNS settings with my own philosophy is f'ing great!

Let march come, I'm 99% ready

Using #xmpp since ~2003 and running my own server (#prosody) since 2013. 🙂

Just had a quick chat with the guys of #xmpp and #prosody. They were friendly, and highly motivated.

#AlStewart is one of the three Als that influenced me as a #songwriter.

You absolutely can tell your #story accurately *and* lyrically.

Accuracy is not an excuse for lack of #prosody and #rhyme.

I first heard this song in college. It is still my favorite. The first link is a #live performance; the second is the studio version.

We are mundane and biological.
We are gross and physical.
We are erratic and chemical.

We are beauty in math/s from minima-bound graphs.
We are dull and prosidical, sharper mit flaws a'full.
Cores of a corps, in course of a gull,
Not crows but stroll in a droll sort of form.

Encircle no pleading and suffuse your meaning to make plain your greeting: unfanciful fleeting as when now we live.

Concern yet afford to fear none aboard nor differ them shored. Let thus be adored!
And when we are not: let strain have forgot, rage unfair not wrought, and druthers yet taught.

Your pain and your rage and your fear and your shame,
your worries, woes, injury, illnesses plain:
Feel and let fall, befell any pall
by knowing or awe. (Be who Young!You sought.)

Your choices are yours of what will come forth.
(Now wait for commenters' witty retort!)

@silo_bear I'm thinking of making a fun little **opinionated** backup/restore utility for #Kanboard, #Radicale, #Shiori, #Flarum, and #Prosody. I run all of these in a #SelfHosting environment.
