Building Chatty: worse libhandy version

Thanks !
I know Gajim, on my desktop I’m using Dino as XMPP client, it looks fine and is implementing audio/video calls compatible with Conversations.
As I expect XMPP to become my main digital communication tool with friends (at this purpose I’ve setup my own ejabberd server at home); I’m asking myself about which client I will use on the L5: is Chatty ready ? For now, Jingle calls are not yet implemented (confer SIP Dialer for Librem 5) I hope they will be in the future (it would be logical), or if I should during a moment use instead Dino (which fits well on L5) or even Converations thanks to anbox

My first impressions after few minutes testing:

  • The interface is simple and clear, looks like a classic SMS app
  • OMEMO not working (actually, it doesn’t recognize recipient’s fingerprint but recognize the other fingerprints of the same account, I hope it’s just a build error)
  • Sends typing notifications but not receive them, no read notifications
  • I don’t see how to upload a file

Just one month ? Good it will be soon ! Mine is supposed to be shipped during summer.
