You can use any xmpp client to join the conference room. Conversations is the best client for android. On desktop I'd recommend Gajim as it is the most active and has OMEMO encryption support. Other multi protocol messengers mostly ignore xmpp and miss basic features and patches are ignored too. >> We only have a handful of active volunteers in Debian India and they are in >> two different chat channels not knowing what is happening on the other one >> .
