📢 @prav server upgrade test
Hi all, I'm currently running upgrades on a test version of the #Prav server, to prepare for a full upgrade. I'll be upgrading the #Debian version from #Bookworm to #Trixie, which will also upgrade #ejabberd in the process and unblock a new version of our Android […]
Praha - Policisté přivezli Tomáše Jiřikovského zadrženého kvůli bitcoinové kauze dnes před 16:00 v poutech na brněnský Obilní trh, kde sídlí regionální pobočka Národní centrály proti organizovanému zločinu (NCOZ). S novináři Jiřikovský nemluvil. Podle dostupných informací byl dosud v Břeclavi […]
Přesuny majetkových struktur ze Slovenska do Česka, miliardové rozvodové řízení v Londýně nebo designování nadačních fondů na míru následovníkům v rodinných firmách. Marta Zavadilová a Ondřej Trubač z advokátní kanceláře Bříza & Trubač popisují poslední právní trendy v uspořádání majetků, které […]
Screenshot of a draft poll with the title: Should we start showing ads in Prav? At the bottom of the page are four voting options: "Agree", "Abstain", "Disagree", and "Block". The two-paragraph description written in the poll is as follows: In order to have feature parity with WhatsApp, we should start introducing ads to Prav users as well. This aligns with our mission to have all the features the general user would expect from the Prav app. On a personal level, I have noticed that I end up spending less money than my friends due to a lower number of "impulse buys" which tend to happen after being repeatedly exposed to advertising. By introducing ads in Prav, we will increase the chance of Prav users spending money on unnecessary stuff, which will help contribute to the economy as well.
Also, #Prav is functioning as a #cooperative and structured such that the entire community is involved in major decisions. So if an evil proposal like "let's introduce #ads" does come up, people can come in and shoot it down 💥
(The attached screenshot is hypothetical, of course 😉)
A two-part slogan on a pink-purple background. The first part shows a sharp-toothed fish snapping at a person and says: Give a person a centralised messaging app and it'll feed on them for a day. The second part has the text wrapped around in the shape of a fish, and says: Teach a person an open protocol and they'll control their feeds for life! At the bottom is a black band with the name Prav (prav.app) and saying: Take back control of your communication.
Is #WhatsApp introducing #ads the last straw for you?

Consider using #Prav instead, which is:
🗳️ community-driven, so you can push for features you like, and, more importantly […]

A purple-pink graphic for PravConf, depicting a pigeon standing under a typical Indian "SIM card for sale" umbrella-covered stall, except that the message instead says "Prav account available here". On the top-left corner is the slogan "Number porting?" followed by a rejoinder wrapped around the umbrella: "We do messenger porting!" Below is a banner with the event details: PravConf 2025, happening on 1st and 2nd March 2025 at MEC Kochi. URL: conf.prav.app Finally comes the mandatory list of sponsors: Fiscal host Navodaya Networks, Organising Partner FOSS MEC, and Gold Sponsor Mostly Harmless
#Prav (and any other #XMPP app) bring this #decentralisation to the #messaging world. Anyone can fire up their own server and plug into the network—or, more commonly, choose an existing chat provider that works for them
#XMPP makes it easy to switch from one […]

A brightly coloured social media banner saying "February 1st 2025: Global Switch Day" Underneath are two coloured squares containing the WhatsApp and Prav logos respectively. An arrow points from WhatsApp to Prav. Visually, the WhatsApp tile is a flat green whereas the Prav tile uses the purple-pink gradient of the Prav logo itself, making it pop out a bit more. The text "Global Switch Day" is also similarly multicoloured.
Oh and if you're in a rush to switch earlier you're welcome :mastozany:
