@vascorsd I had something similar to that happen to me recently as well. I'm using a #prosody server, and I have my:
archive_expires_after = "5w"
... set in /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
Messages should be archived for 5 weeks.
Then messages sent in Gajim on one linux laptop were lost, when a second #Linux laptop who was subscribed to the same group, was turned off (absent from receiving messages) for 3 weeks. 2.75 of the 3 weeks worth of the group messages (where the laptop was turned off) silently never showed up, when #Gajim was re-opened on the second laptop.
This bodes very badly for me recommending XMPP to others. I now consider #DeltaChat to be a secondary choice, should something happen to #Signal (which is currently my privacy-respecting Messaging app goto).
Other clients who chatted in that same group, BTW: the latest stable #Monal in #iPadOS, and #Conversations in #Android
Prosody version is 13.0.0-1~bpo12+1, backend is sqlite, Gajim is 2.1.1. It was a private MUC, and OMEMO was used as much as possible.
@dangoodin Every other desktop messaging app for #Windows would do well to add this, as #Signal has. And if they don't, they compromise the privacy of all those people who took pains to *not* use Windows (who use said messaging apps, and are contacts with these Windows users). Every alternative operating system - #Linux, #MacOS, #iPadOS, #iOS, etc - where you can run these non-Recall-protected messaging apps... they all get dragged into the privacy quagmire which Windows #Recall creates.
Another idea is for these Messaging apps to discontinue Windows support, thereby cutting off the infected, gangrenous limb, with respect to privacy. For example, #Gajim, the #XMPP client for linux, was recently stating they would release a Windows client for 2.2.0. How about just don't, and call it a day, citing Recall being too "radioactive" to privacy to get anywhere near?
I'm curious: Can web browser tabs make a DRM-insisting Recall-blockage, like Signal does? I use WhatsApp Web. How can WhatsApp Web - in a browser tab - do what Signal does here?
Nachdem ich mein #XMPP-Konto auf #Hookipa irrtümlich gelöscht habe, habe ich mich unter wunderbar@trashserver.net neu registriert.
Ich kann mich auf gajim.org mit meinem hookipa-Passwort nicht mehr einloggen. Gibt es ein Problem auf dem Server? Wie kann ich mein Passwort ändern?
Gajim 2.2.0 has been released
This release brings three new features:
message retraction , blocking participants in group chats
, and updated support for modern group chat avatars
.
Thank you for all your contributions!

@cmccullough @pidgin #Gajim, and #Conversations, which I consider solid enough. Also some #Monal on #iPadOS , which I hope improves considerably soon. Is a few cards short of a full deck at present.
No IRC for me.
@delta / #deltaChat is not using #XMPP+#OMEMO (unlike #monoclesChat & #gajim) but #PGP/MIME on regular #eMail,...wait, why not just email people and use PGP, then?
