I've been out of the loop for a while now. It's looking like the twitter addon is not working. Not sure if I need to do something special after one of the git pulls.

I'll have to settle for lunch at a great local spot, since I didn't get the invite to the Royal Wedding Reception!

@Ɽł₵Ⱨ₳ⱤĐ don't get me wrong, I did watch what I could of the wedding on BBCAmerica when I woke up. Saw the end of the ceremony and the Carriage Procession.

Anyone out there using #archlinux and also #nextcloud installed Talk? Curious about installing it through the built in "app store" vs the AUR package. Also, general usage/testing results and thoughts.

#archlinux #nextcloud

Not Arch, but I've used Talk extensively.

Did you use its own web interface to "enable" the app, or did you install the package through your OS's package manager?

Via the app store. Nextcloud wants to manage its own app updates anyway, so if you use the Arch package you may end up with annoying update notifications that you can't make go away until Arch releases an update.

Talk is now installed. Things seem solid, was able to log in using the phone app as well. So, theoretically I can now communicate with other users on my node, and other Nextcloud users? I don't have any connections with other Nextcloud nodes, so can't really test that I suppose.

It should be possible. Do you have a TURN server set up?

No, I just installed the Talk app, nothing with TURN.

You may have trouble connecting with anyone behind NAT (which is pretty much everyone) without one. I think nextcloud runs a public one you can use.

Yeah, I was just looking at the settings. There's a STUN and Signaling default, but as you say/know the TURN is example. I'll have to look into this some more. But otherwise, you are able to "connect" with users of other nextcloud nodes. This is also something I have not done, though I do see a field for the contacts app that is for Federated Cloud ID.

I've installed other packages from the Arch repository of software that on other OS's would want to maintain its own updates, and my experience was that the Arch updates would lag only a couple of days behind...
