ah yes, another fork of BirdSiteLive. Every one seems to make their own fork of that thing. And none of them (that I've found) set a user agent when delivering messages to other AP…

oh wow HN is parroting this bullshit again. Moxie and Signal didn't do anything other than asking LibreSignal politely to stop using their servers. They didn't "shut down" anything…

Could you point me to some of those instances?

Okay, that's fair. I interpreted them as a response to the original question about if the policy is enforced.

We know the policy, no one is confused about the policy, all 3rd party clients violate the policy. Is the policy enforced? I've seen no evidence of it.

I'm looking for people's experience interacting with the Signal server , not moxie. We're talking about if the server enforces any kind of client restrictions. I haven't looked sup…

Sorry what am I looking for in this 200 comment reddit thread? I don't see any comments from moxie himself, just a lot of other people claiming to know what moxie wants. Are there …

signal-cli uses a clearly identifiable user agent [0] that could easily be blocked if Signal wanted to. signal-cli could escalate by trying to evade that kind of a block, but as it…

I said it's not enforced. I cannot speak for moxie or Signal. I can speak for my own experiences, as the maintainer of a fork of signal-cli, and I have never seen any evidence that…

It's not a licensing restriction, it's a terms of use for their network service. It's also not enforced. Their clients are open source, signal-cli uses a fork of the Android app's …

signald is a fork of signal-cli

yes, send it to your own phone number, just like all the real Signal clients.

there are matrix bridges for all three of those https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-whatsapp https://github.com/Half-Shot/matrix-appservice-discord https://github.com/matrix-org/matri…

signald also comes with a cli called signaldctl: https://signald.org/signaldctl/

the signal matrix bridge currently listed on matrix.org ( https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-signal ) uses signald

a pidgin (libpurple) plugin actually exists already: https://github.com/hoehermann/libpurple-signald I'd like to improve the website to better showcase the clients

This daemon handles as much of the weird signal-specific stuff and exposes an easier to use API. It handles things like encrypting and decrypting messages, generating and storing k…

:)

well "signal-cli" is already in use by https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli (which signald is a fork of)

This is a tool to build Signal clients with. It handles the Signal-specific stuff, clients can communicate with via a unix socket.

signald author here, open to suggestions on that name. As you've noticed, I try to avoid using the word "signal". I do agree that the current name is pretty awkward. edit: the name…

https://gitlab.com/thefinn93/signald/-/issues/52#note_406669... has some details about the issues running Chatty with libpurple-signald

Sounds like you're describing an SRV recrod
