        Hi,
        I just registered to this forum because I coincidentally got a Sony Xperia X and was reading around which ROM to use on it. I was a nice surprise to see that there's a Linux OS for this device. Since it would be my daily driver my requirement is a fully working, OMEMO-capable XMPP-client. This isn't currently the case on Ubuntu Touch, so for now I'm going to install an Android ROM on it.
        I now wonder though: Once Dino becomes more or less feature complete is it portable to Ubuntu Touch?

          @villeneuve dino is gtk, gtk isnt very likely to be a good experience on ubuntu touch, and will probabky be harder to port.

          Youll probably have a much easier time just waiting for another qt upgrade, then click packaging Kaiden, thatll be getting more feature full over time.

            Just as a quick heads up on this topic. Movim (movim.eu) just today got a proof of concept e2ee OMEMO implementation (developed under a NLnet EU grant) and in general it works pretty well in Morph.
            Push notifications will be a bit more tricky, but I think once I get my own Movim pod running (some stupid Nginx issues) I will try to update the existing UT Movim webapp.
            So this should really improve the XMPP messenger situation on UT.

              @povoq Great, this has the potential to fill the gap. Can you explain Omemo in more detail? How is it activated? I use the site https://mov.im and haven't found any hint of encryption there.

                @4carlos OMEMO on Movim is not available to the general public yet, but the developer is working on it right now. It looks like it will be available with the next release.

                    @4carlos Try again my updated ConverseJS app:
                    https://open-store.io/app/conversejs.povoq

                    Should work better now.

                    OMEMO on Movim is still upcoming, but they did make some good progress last week.

                      Hi. Some time ago I tried to create a client based on libpurple. Xmpp support would be a matter of course there. Unfortunately, I don't have much time to devote to this project. But if by chance someone has the time and mood: https://gitlab.com/x_Dub_CZ/zetaim

                        @x-dub oh, cool. and that has already a Ubuntu Touch compatible QML interface? What is missing?

                          @povoq QML interface is newly designed by me and should still be QT 5.9 compatible. So far, it is also clean without the UT toolkit. It is practically lacking to connect the backend with the frontend, design a contact list, chat window and account management. Well, quite a lot of things are missing in the frontend (QML). :face_with_tears_of_joy:

                          I was based on this project, which was written for Sailfish OS: https://github.com/Michal-Szczepaniak/Morsender

                          Backend is actually copied from the original project and cleaned of dependencies on Sailfish OS.

                            @x-dub Ah, a bit out of my area of expertise then. But this would be a cool project to enable chatting on Discord and other services with working libpurple lbraries.

                              @povoq This client would allow this.

                                @x-dub Maybe you should make a "help wanted" post on this forum instead of hinding the link here in a thread that only people interested in XMPP will read 😉
