As Snikket is still not available on the #Google Play Store, we've published a longer blog post about the situation, how to work around it using #FDroid, and the long path of stupid Google review responses that led us here.

Just a heads-up that #Snikket #Android has been pulled by #Google from the store. We'll work on restoring it once we figure out their (as usual) nonsensical complaints. Apologies to everyone affected. Please look at #FDroid and free yourself.
Today's excuse for delisting yet another #XMPP app?
"Your app is uploading users' Image information without posting a privacy policy link or text within the Play Distributed App."
Funny. What's this then?? 👀

Several people have (rightly) asked if Snikket is affected by the malicious backdoor found in the widely-used #xz project. It is not affected.
However if you are self-hosting, do be sure that your system is also not affected, and up to date with available security patches.
More info in our blog post:

Many people affected by the recent blocking of #Telegram in 🇪🇸 Spain are looking for alternatives - especially decentralized ones.
[#]Snikket is one of those alternatives, and fully open-source. However, our Spanish translations are lacking, which can lead to a poor experience for our #hispanohablante friends.
If you think you could help us with translation, please reach out 🙂

We've published a new blog post about the recent jabber.ru security incident (a kind of attack we have not seen before). It did not affect Snikket servers, but we are taking steps to remove the possibility of such attacks in the future. This includes advice that self-hosters can follow.
