Re: FluffyChat Encryption via Pantalaimon

Hi folks,
I wanted to post this step by step procedure of how I got FluffyChat Encryption via Pantalaimon. I just needed some simple instructions on how to get this working and this is what worked for me.

I went to this site - https://thrrgilag.net/
I clicked on the top post entitled 'pantalaimon-ut 0.4.0, scrolled to the end of the post and and downloaded the click app for my build of UT. I am on the armhf version instead of arm64
Once the click app has been downloaded, I clicked on it and opened it with the UT App Store, and selected install.
Once the app is installed, I opened Pantalaimon from the drawer and selected 'Add homeserver'.
It pretty much filled out all the fields for the matrix.org account and enabled the app to run at startup. Make sure the process is running at this stage
Open up FluffyChat, go to the settings page and logout.
Log back in to FC, click on the hamburger menu, select 'Change homeserver', select Pantalaimon as the server - this will change the servername to 127.0.0.1:8009, and your usual username [@username:matrix.org] and password.
When you now try to send an encrypted message it will ask you to verify the client. It is currently not possible to do this via a popup on FluffyChat. I needed to go into the Element Desktop App -> Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Click on the green link 'verify them in your User Profile'. Select pantalaimon from the list on the right and verify via text.

Any idea how to perform step 8 on desktop app running linux? Not able to verify encryption mentioned in step 8, there is no option for "verify them in your User Profile" in the app.
