JadeRune.net XMPP Guide

🇬🇧 English | 🇩🇪 Deutsch

XMPP is the primary way we communicate. It offers 1-on-1 and group chat capabilities as well as voice and video calling. Some recommended clients to use are:

• Gajim on Linux, BSDs, Windows, or MacOS
• Dino on Linux and BSDs (and MacOS if you're not afraid to compile it from source)
• Conversations on Android
• Monal on iOS and MacOS
• BeagleIM on MacOS
• Snikket on iOS
• Profanity on any *nix system (terminal-based)

Here is how to get connected with one of the more popular clients, Gajim:

1. Download and install Gajim from the Gajim website or by using your operating system's package manager;
2. Make sure you install the OMEMO plugin as well if you want to use end-to-end encrypted messaging (usually this is as easy as installing a package like 'gajim-plugin-omemo' and restarting Gajim);
3. Log in using your handle (e.g. yourname@jaderune.net) and password;
4. Explore the interface and get chatting!

Don't forget you can ask for help in our General chatroom at any time. Happy chatting!
