Background story on my motivation behind adapting #Dino fsci.in/blog/importance-of-fre #xmpp #FreeSoftware

#Gajim is the only other app that works decently with #omemo/end to end encryption, though its developers are opposed to making the ui adaptive. The other app #chatty has good adaptive ui, but end to end encryption is broken and it is unlikely to see any fixes anytime soon (since it uses #libpurple and does not have any recent releases).

My current WeeChat setup

Since it's come up in conversation a couple of times in the past week (waves at @snowdusk__ and @yarmo), here's a #screenshot of my current #WeeChat setup (though with different buffers selected than my usual arrangement).

"What am I looking at on the screenshot?"

A buffer list ¹ on the left. Buffers represent the channels, private message streams and status timelines from the various chat media you are connected to.
Side the buffer list are a variety of horizontally and vertically panes, which @weechat called 'windows', each window showing the contents of one
² of the buffers.

"What buffers are visible in these window panes?"

From top left to bottom right these are:

"What's making it work?"

All running in a #tmux terminal multiplexer session, running under #WSL2 on #Windows, in the #WindowsTerminalPreview #terminal client.

(Repost to fix an at-mention...)

Footnotes

¹ though I still use buffers.pl script rather than the built-in buflist plugin because I'm too lazy to migrate my settings to make it look and act in the way I've gotten used to.
² or more, as buffers can be merged, displaying the contents of each of the merged buffers chronologically in the same window pane.
