Best IM client? Anonymous 03/13/16 (Sun) 15:33:38 No.542327

What FLOSS IM client has the best GUI? I'm thinking of forking one, but changing the protocol to Axolotl (Signal) since their desktop client is utter shit. How about Telegram Desktop?

The tox clients seem really great.

Telegram have the best GUI for Android, and probably for Desktop too

You mean that meme chat service that's mostly used by furfags willing to hand over their cell number for a "secure" chat?

I didn't see you retards complaining about metadata when Tox announced it'd be decentralised and p2p, which makes it OBVIOUS there's no other way to do it, other than hiding behind a proxy. That's the whole idea of it being decentralised. You're just repeating what other people say like babies

OP implied he's only interested in the GUI

And how easy/hard it is to modify, in terms of code readability and such.

Let me make it easier for you,

Device : Protocol : Client

PC : Tox : qTox

Telephone : SMS/VOIP/IM : Signal

minbif/bitlbee are pretty great.

On mobile I'd say Antox or Telegram
