XMPP: The secure communication protocol that respects privacy
the omemo support in pidgin is just through a plugin, as with many recent XEPs. i think people tend to forget that pidgin's focus is being a multi-protocol messenger. it ships with XMPP support, but that mostly includes the base.
i wrote that omemo plugin and tbh I am pretty burned out. so many moving parts, it's hell to debug and i'm not even sure where to go next with it. (plus people keep talking badly about pidgin anyway and i am not sure if it's even worth continuing.) i am very thankful for all the contributions so far, especially the help with packaging it. sorry if someone feels let down.
i feel like this is the right moment to ask: if anyone reading has an idea how to improve the state of things, i'd be happy about some suggestions. the project page is https://github.com/gkdr/lurch

Die Beste Werbung für Signal. Weg von WhatsApp.
Neben der normalen Version von lurch die zuletzt 2018 geupdatet wurde gibt es noch den dev build der wesentlich besser funktioniert und wo das letzte Update erst 5 Tage her ist. Allerdings muss man die Version entweder selbst kompilieren was bei Pidgin unter Windows etwas umständlich ist oder eine bereits kompilierte Version vom 24.07.2020 nutzen. https://github.com/gkdr/lurch/tree/dev https://eion.robbmob.com/lurch/dev/

How Beeper Mini Works
ah didn't realize it had gone away. its successor appears to be [0]
now I'm reliving the chaos of the late-00s/early-10s instant messaging apocalypse when AOL sunsetted AIM. Clients like Trillian were absolutely necessary before AIM shut down. Everybuddy was a good linux-friendly client. When I still spent time on IRC, I really really liked Bitlbee [1] with ERC [2].
(I'm not saying that there's a connection there, but rather that all the chat protocols started getting used less around the same time for the same reason, which was smartphones becoming commonplace in late-00s.)

Is/are there any FOSS Discord Client for Android?
I use purple-discord (libpurple/Pidgin plugin) + BItlBee (IRC chat gateway, libpurple variant) + Quassel (distribued IRC client, like a bouncer) on a home server, and use Quasseldroid to connect on mobile. I would eventually like to simplify this setup.

The first beta of Slidge (XMPP bridges) is out
I used to have a similar setup to use IRC for everything using https://www.bitlbee.org. Fun times!

Screenshot: twittering-mode
Another approach to this is to use bitlbee's twitter support and your favorite Emacs IRC client to access that. This is especially nice if you are using bitlbee anyway.
What are some alternatives?
slack-libpurple - Slack module for libpurple
Weechat - The extensible chat client.
Xabber - Open-source XMPP client for Android
purple-signald - Pidgin libpurple bridge to signald.
purple-gowhatsapp - Pidgin/libpurple plugin for WhatsApp Web.
bitlbee-discord - Bitlbee plugin for Discord (http://discordapp.com)
ngircd - Free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server
client - Open source, themeable and extendable discord-compatible native Spacebar client
QuasselDroid-ng - Next Generation of the QuasselDroid IRC client.
Spectrum 2 - Spectrum 2 IM transports
