Thanks to a user report, we were made aware that there was a bug in invite processing for channels on domains we don't yet know.
This has now been fixed. If you have been trying to get your channel listed and it hasn't worked, you may now try again.

Another bit you may have noticed, especially if you visit the home page regularly, is that avatars now always load correctly.
The old website had a weird fun Python runtime type error which occurred sometimes when the browser had an avatar in the cache already.
Because we deleted the almost 10k lines of Python code and replaced it with Rust, that can't happen anymore \o/.
(Also, it's now faster and less memory use, which is nice.)

The "search by language" feature is also available via our API. Apps such as #Conversations and #Gajim already support it automatically.

This release also marks the implementation of a people have been asking since forever: Search #xmpp / #jabber channels by language. You can now do that!
To search for all channels in french, you could type "lang:fr" in the search bar. Like this: https://search.jabber.network/search?q=lang%3Afr
"lang:foo" can be combined with other search terms.
More information on how to search by language is found in the FAQ: https://search.jabber.network/docs/faq

🥳 Big news! While half of Europe is hanging out in Hamburg at 38c3, we got bored and accidentally our web frontend.
It comes with a bunch of new features, which we'll post about in the next couple hours and days, but the one which will probably be most obvious is that we now feature a built-in, automatic dark mode based on your browser / OS preferences 🌙 .
Check it out at https://search.jabber.network !

Fun fact! An initial concept of the crawler actually did involve joining rooms.
The idea was to read room traffic, looking for xmpp: URIs to find new rooms. We quickly discarded this idea though, because it seemed too intrusive.
I mean, who does that, listening in on everyone's conversations, pinky-promising not to do anything harmful with that?

FYI, if you find a user called search.jabber.network joining a room, that's not our crawler. The crawler never joins rooms.
Most likely, it is us, via support@search.jabber.network, about to reach out to someone for something.
Or an impersonator. s.j.n support will always contact you using xmpp:support@search.jabber.network and will never ask you for your password or online banking credentials.

There. Fixed. We all hate the python dependency hell.

And great, while updating the documentation, we broke the web and HTTP API. Stand by, we'll be back shortly.

🎉 Great news! Only four and a half years after the XSF @xmpp accepted our proposal for an extended protocol to find channels, we actually implemented it ourselves.
App developers can now reach a https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0433.html compliant API at xmpp:api@search.jabber.network .
We will continue to offer the legacy XMPP-based API at least until XEP-0433 has been promoted to stable. Report any bugs here or via the usual support channels.
(And of course, you can still use the anonymous HTTP API.)

Just a heads up: We're working on a major revamp of our backend. That may cause a bit more disco#info, disco#items and vcard-temp #XMPP traffic toward some of the well-known MUC hosting domains while we validate our new implementation.
We have to do a thorough validation against real-world data, because the new implementation shares no code with the old implementation and we need to ensure that the listing doesn't break.
