Matthias<p>I am using <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/xmpp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xmpp</span></a> since the time of windows xp and <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/pidgin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pidgin</span></a>. It is sad to see how the ecosystem moved. On Linux the only client available is gajim (there is no realistic way to install dino on Linux Mint). I appreciate the work people do to make those clients but.. it has so much problems. Now it constantly crashes so my xmpp communication is almost gone. Or lets say, my xmpp usage is tied to my smartphone with "conversations" as client.</p>
