Yes, Conversations is good, Yaxim is not bad, there is also Xabber...
Make your choice based on your own criteria :)
Conversations is a gold standard in XMPP-world and arguably the only reason XMPP is alive at this point. One can complain about some default choices taken there but thereβs no question that Conversations strives to be modern, user-friendly and secure at the same time and itβs doing great. Iβm running my entire family on it and theyβre very happy.
Just make sure the server youβre using is being properly maintained: https://compliance.conversations.im/
Yaxim is a tool for old-school XMPP nerds. Nothing wrong with that it just has this 2000s flavor. I would totally not recommend Yaxim for normal people as itβs not as maintained as Conversations and targetted at a specialized XMPP users.
@wiktor thank you for your grand overview about Conversations.
but i'm not so technically experienced, to set up my own server.
so i say thank you twice for the link you post fot me. have a nice evening!
p.s. wich xephs & what encryption standard should i prefer?
Just go with what Conversations is recommending. That means OMEMO. If you'd like to read in more detail about it I recommend: https://github.com/siacs/Conversations#security
Also, Iβm not sure whatβs your relationship with privacytools.io but Mikaela knows a lot about practical XMPP so you may want to get it touch with her too: https://social.privacytools.io/@mikaela
