2024-01-09 New website logo, First steps and updated pages
Todays announcement is about presenting the new frei.chat logo and informing about a fresh update of most of the pages, like Bots, Bridges and Services.
If you would like to link frei.chat on your website, you can of course use the logo in conjunction with.
frei.chat now has a new public space for RSS feeds. Each room is assigned a feed and updates once an hour.
The Postmoogle bot allows every user to receive and send emails via frei.chat. The Bots page describes what you need to do for your personal email address.
I have created a "First steps" guide on how to start on frei.chat for new users.
2024-01-06 Revision of the website
I've been working on redesigning the frei.chat website for a few hours now. I switched from the mkdocs for materials software to Bookstack, which makes working on the individual pages much easier.
In addition to updates to the Bridges, Bots and Services pages, illustrated instructions for the first steps to your own frei.chat account have now been added.
In addition, you now have a clear overview of the changes to the frei.chat server on the announcements page.
2024-01-05 Update of the Signal bridge bot
Singal
If you want to have all Signal chats in you very own Signal space you have to run the command !signal sync-spaces in you personal Singal management room.
Maubot
The new maubot can be invited in every unencrypted room. It response to many commands and mostly used for fun actions.
2024-01-04 New Signal bridge bot
The new Signal bridge was installed on top of the existing installation. All devices which have been connected before the 3rd of January 2024 needs to be re-linked manually. Every command has to start with the prefix !signal so talk to the bridge bot.
In case you have problems with the Signal bot please kick the user @signalbot:frei.chat out of the management room, leave that room, create a new unencrypted room and invite the bot again.
