@renehamburg damals bezüglich #Jabber und #ICQ schon mein Gedanke:
Sollte im Play Store einen #Matrix Messenger geben der sich per Handynummer einrichten lässt.
Quasi Noob freundlich...
@erebion @inaruck #Scherheit bedeutet ja nicht nur #ITsec, sondern #InfoSec, #OpSec & #ComSec.
Gibt Gründe warum #XMPP+#OMEMO, #IRC & #eMail bis heute existieren ubd warum keiner mehr #AIM, #ICQ, #MSN, #BBM & Co. nutzt!
@crossgolf_rebel mal sehen welche Ausmaße das annimmt.

"Guten morgen #ICQ , beste Timeline ever" 
@compl4xx @Layer8 @nick @kuketzblog @marcel @mspro
Meine Rede...
Oder um es einfach zu erklären: Warum gibt es #HTTP(S) & #HTML sowie #eMail ( #IMAP & #SMTP) bis heute und keiner nutzt mehr #AOL, #MSN, #ICQ?
Wenn @signalapp / #Signal wegen #CloudAct geflipped wird wie #EncroChat, #ANØM & #SkyECC dann stehen Leute alternativlos in der shice ubd die ganzen "Sicherheitsversprechen" lösen sich in "#TrustMeBro!" und #Lügen auf.
Ich nutze meinen XMPP-Account seit Ewigkeiten und habe drölfzig Clients durch. Aber Kontakte erreichen mich darüber Problemlos!
So I’ve just gone to https://chivanet.org and registered the #ICQ UIN that I had back in the day, which is 104227439.
@rysiek @agturcz that's not how you fix #TechIlliteracy, espechally since things changed for the better.
@monocles / #monoclesChat & @gajim / #gajim are quite easy, whereas @signalapp / #Signal demands #PII in the form of a #Phone number which is more often than not not legally obtainable without "#KYC" aka. "forced #SelfDoxxing" all whilst being an extremely #centralized, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider solution that falls under #CloudAct ant thus cannot adhere to #GDPR & #BDSG!
"JuSt UsE sIgNaL !" won't fix #TechIlliteracy but rather provide false sense of security to #TechIlliterates when the correct solution is to teach proper #TechLiteracy like @cryptoparty@chaos.social / @cryptoparty@mastodon.earth / #CryptoParty does...Otherwise we'd only perpetuate the #Enshittification-#Lifecycle as has happened with #AIM, #ICQ, #BBM and so many more...
If #Signal and @Mer__edith actually cared, they would've setup their system truly decentralized as an #OnionService over @torproject / #Tor!
Remember the original #ICQ (I-seek-you)? It was the first #InstantMessenger. They envisioned that each web user has a UIN or User (or Unified?) Identity Number. It was built by Jews and Arabs. They defied stereotypes and showed they can work together. #Tech #History
Natürlich kannste der #Desinformation von #Diensteanbietern glauben, aber dann ist #WhatsApp auch #E2EE weil die #SSL nutzen (und mit der Logik auch #WeChat & #QQ - lol)!
Gerade weil wirkliche #InfoSec & #OpSec sowie #ComSec & #ITsec nur mit #Transparenz geht.
@henry ah yes ICQ, so many times over the years when a new feature on the other socials arrived, I've said ICQ had/have that already. ICQ and IRC where the only two things that stood up to the online chaos one September, all other MSM fell over and we in the office only had what people told us that they saw on telly happening in NY via #ICQ and #IRC
It's a good time to remember the long-forgotten programs like ICQ and QIP, where the only thing left from the good old ICQ is the "o-ou" sound. They already had their own emojis and icons, and in the latest versions even their own qip.ru account. But I agree, it was a good thing! It made ICQ more comfortable and interesting. Just a plugin like the one that fetched the current song from Winamp and put the title in ICQ status was worth a lot!
It was amazing that ICQ had an open protocol that allowed you to write your own clients. I remember a rebellious one under Mandriva Linux that I built from source code. It took an enormous amount of energy. Especially later with the encodings. But what joy it was when everything started working stably!
In the picture is my honeymoon with Linux. I started making these kinds of screenshots before it became mainstream

Today on the #HackerPublicRadio #Community #Podcast
@briankrebs +9001%
I've seen how #tumblr got #enshittified and how #Musk ruined #Twitter into #Shitter...
"#Fediverse or #GTFO!" should be the motto, cuz only truly #decentralized #SocialMedia and Communications will survive...
Everything else, regardless if #TikTok, #Threads or #Discord will die like #ICQ before, whilst we'll all be able to use #ActivityPub, #IRC, #XMPP-#OMEMO and #PGP/MIME-encrypted #eMail forever...
Mein #Aszendent Tankenbocker wäre beinah mit dem Saturnringchakra des Hauses der #Jungfrau (Ex-, egal!) kollidiert!

Im #nerdcafe Podcast wird es heute mal bisschen anekdotisch und persönlich. Ein digitaler Nachruf auf #icq zum Ende des Dienstes vor kurzem.
@bigolifacks and that makes it worse than #NSAbook or #Shitter because those can at least be scraped, archived, exported and somewhat transfered.
I'd rather #SelfHost @zulip, #JitsiMeet with a #VoIP-Bridge, @nextcloud + @collabora than use #Discord because those don't prevent one from sharing content or actually #archiving and #exporting conversations.
@tempus_fuckit gute Frage...
Hat niemensch beim #Wikipedia-Artikel ne Kopie davon im @internetarchive backupped als Link unter "Kritik"?
