Ferdi VS caprine

It's subscription priced now...? Maybe try Ferdi instead...? Same App but without subscriptions. https://github.com/getferdi/ferdi

Suggesting this one must be cheating https://github.com/getferdi/ferdi

This probably was already a problem in Ferdi. There is/was an issue on github https://github.com/getferdi/ferdi/issues/1458

I use Ferdi to multiplex my messaging apps and have them all in one place. It's basically a glorified web browser that only opens iframes to specific pages (eg: discord). In this environment Discord has some interesting behavior where the menu bar at the top left is very slow to respond, and despite large window sizes (and refreshing at these large window sizes) the screen always seems to be in a single column layout, never showing the chat messages + channel list at the same time.

I just noticed the getferdi.com website is up again including a video, link to the code etc.

Then you can use https://github.com/getferdi/ferdi, which is a unrestricted Fork of Franz

Ferdi (Website, GitHub): Free fork of Franz. Announced on June 11, 2022 that "There will be no further updates to Ferdi. 🏄‍♂️" but that tweet is now deleted and the repo is updating again... But they've disabled the issue tracker behind a $9/month paywall.

I see that the repo is back (https://github.com/getferdi/ferdi)

If you have access to the source, package.json will have several entries for electron packages. Example.

Second was a small CSS change in a popular project, Caprine. I really had a long back and forth with the maintainer about two seemingly simple changes in a style sheet and I realized I should have been linting my code changes and I learned how to find the css elements I meant to target, it was a small step forward. https://github.com/sindresorhus/caprine/pull/1933 You can still see the remainder of a bunch of requested changes.

The second issue that I wanted to take on I wanted to upgrade from a markdown change like in my first PR. In this second PR I set out to find a small code change to make. After staring at the issue board for an hour or two I finally came across one that I was surprised was not taken. I found this open source Facebook messenger app called Caprine. This was and still is really cool to me, the opportunity to work on something that was so well put together and much larger than my previous project.

Caprine - Nezvanična Facebook Messenger aplikacija za Windows, macOS i Linux - Electron, TypeScript, CSS

I too have faced issues with it on Firefox in the past and moved on to an open source application called Caprine. Works pretty well on Windows/MacOS/Linux.

There in an open source program for Linux/Windows, called Caprine, it's on GitHub ( https://github.com/sindresorhus/caprine ). It has also a portable version for Windows on https://portapps.io , if you are on a machine that's managed by the company you work for (it's like that for me). It's like the official Messenger app for the desktop, but Messenger came out later.

There's an alternative Messenger Client : Caprine

If you absolutely have to use Facebook Messenger, perhaps you could try a free and open-source client like Caprine, which is for desktop, but there was another one for mobile as well, I just don't remember the name of it (as I personally don't use it / have the need to use Facebook Messenger).

I never actually "solved" this, but I switched to Caprine and I'm no longer having any problems. It actually works much better than the official app (it lets you send audio files, etc).
