Dino is a modern open-source chat client for desktop based on XMPP/Jabber. It is written in Vala/GTK+. Development of Dino started three years ago, involving over 30 people in the process of creating the client. Dino meets all security requirements and is compatible with all XMPP clients. servers The main difference from most similar clients is a clean, simple, and modern interface. Applications like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger have captured millions of users due to their user-friendly interface, which XMPP clients have never been able to boast. However, they have closed source, which is a downside. Apps like Wire or Signal may offer a good interface, open source, and support for encryption, but they are centralized, which is also not ideal. Dino fills this gap and brings a quality client to the world of decentralized messaging. You will experience unforgettable secure and private communication!
Key features of the client include:
- A simple and modern interface.
- Support for encryption (2 methods): OpenGPG and OMEMO with a double ratchet mechanism.
- Transmission of images and other files without any restrictions.
- Support for individual and group chats.
- Advanced message search.
- Ability to use alongside other XMPP clients, continuing the same conversation through both mobile and desktop clients. Messages sent and received while Dino is offline will be synchronized upon launch.
- Ability to use multiple accounts in one window, allowing separation of personal and work data.
- Rich privacy customization options.
- Dino is a small and fast application!
