#omemo
haven't had issues with message delivery
omemo in chatrooms is indeed meh, but having it off is the equivalent of using discord/stoat/whathaveyou

ive tried XMPP chatrooms before, OMEMO broke like every other hour, or messages kept failing to deliver

¿Qué sabes de Conversations? XMPP con cifrado OMEMO. Ése es el que uso yo con mis hijos.

xml based matrix if:
- encryption was worse but more reliable (should be better once we get new omemo version currently in works)
- moderation was better
- channels were hosted in each server instead of distributed
- mobile users were given less consideration during design time
- ios support was bad

no OMEMO yet, Tauri is kinda mid, and A/V is probably a pipe dream

...but I am watching very carefully for the future

omemo is nice but this client doesn't have it (yet?)
February 15, 2026 at 1:00 AM
okay so: omemo sucks?

https://github.com/dino/dino/issues/850

this is basically the same story I've heard everywhere omemo is used: it's extremely hostile towards anyone who wants to back up their messages. forgetful? have multiple computers? fuck you I guess.

I like XMPP overall but I'm […]

there's no server level enforcement for encryption, soo arguably, it's tenfold worse. i can't get omemo encrypted messages from 2 members of a 7 member room no matter what i've tried.

Para construir cualquier plataforma de Chat decente con XMPP tienes que implementar al menos una docena de extensiones, y si además quieres una experiencia de chat moderna, un par más (Carbon Copies, OMEMO)

Y rezar porque los demás miembros de la federación lo implementen también, claro

Boa leitura para quem ficou pensativo sobre o artigo que fala contra XMPP, dizendo que não é uma alternativa ao Signal, que OMEMO é defasado e etc.

Make sure you get the omemo plugin for gajim
February 12, 2026 at 8:47 PM
im glad gajim comes with omemo pre-installed these days

You received a message encrypted with OMEMO but your client doesn't support OMEMO.
February 12, 2026 at 6:21 PM
[This message is OMEMO encrypted]

Discord might be vulnerable to enshittification and Signal might be vulnerable to centralization but XMPP is vulnerable to trolls posting "This message was encrypted with OMEMO, but not for your device" in the group chats for a giggle

Fedi people: actually XMPP's encryption really isn't strong enough for day to day use,

XMPP people: [this message was encrypted with OMEMO, but not for your device]

Everyone else, in their Millions: sending nudes, warez, company secrets and seditious material through servers owned and operated […]

**Desabafo - onboarding no XMPP** :xmpplogo:
TL;DR.

Sei que não dá para esmorecer, mas é difícil quando ouço que OMEMO é difícil, quando é bem raro um usuário comum ter problemas, seja no Monal ou no Conversations, porque ele instala 1 app e usa ele - o usuário "normie" não fica trocando de app […]

OK so I'm trying Snikket, got it installed and logged in to on my Jabber account, everything seems to work fine? OMEMO works as it should?

...this looks INCREDIBLY like Conversations. Is this a Conversations fork?

This message was encrypted with OMEMO, but not for your device.

(I can't get it to work at the to event because spouse's messages said "This message is encrypted" and my messages to her were sent in the clear with no option to encrypt them, which is obvs not intended behaviour bc the dev was talking about it supporting omemo)
February 11, 2026 at 12:31 AM
every time i run into an omemo issue i want to fire a round between my eyes
