>amazing video calling
>groupchats
>no servers
>fully documented

>>54082157
>open sauce
It's actually completely FLOSS, which only makes it better, of course.
>>54081955

>>54082157
>fully documented
The docs are really, really shit
>>54082304

>>54082438
Shit by linux standars or normal ones?
>>54081955
>piece of software
>computer engineering
get the fuck out of here
It's a great program with a nice concept, works pretty good in practice also. Shitty logo color though, doesn't look nice on a dark taskbar.
>>54082304
The only thing that's backdoored would be your wife by her BBC named Jamal.
>>54082157

Use qTox.
>>54082157
>>fully documented
>>amazing video calling
ahahahahahaha
Literally no security audit
Sorry but I don't want my IP leaked
Tox is dead so no
>>54083451
This meme again
>>54083451
nice try, Pajeet
>>54084945
>>54084914
mfw this isnt a meme, you can dump all of tox users IP addresses by abusing the DHT, and you can lookup a specific tox users IP address with the DHT too! no need to talk to them or wireshark or anything like that...wew.
>>54084971
5.77.241.10
that's my ip, enjoy, you fucking faggot.
>>54084971
>you can dump all of tox users IP addresses by abusing the DHT, and you can lookup a specific tox users IP address with the DHT too!
This is why I don't use Tox
>>54084996
oh also you can do it in reverse too! you can find a n IP addresses tox address with the DHT as well!
>>54084971
>>54085032
Baka, use it with Tor
>>54086225
>having to use tor
Shit client
Proof that /g/ can't do anything right
Tox is dead. Irungentoo hasn't made a commit for 30 days.
>>54088450
good
>>54081955
just use xmpp + otr
>>54084971
>>54085032
It only leaks your IP to people you have added as friends, leaking your IP to everybody on the DHT was fixed ages ago.
If you don't have any real friends and really want to add random strangers you met over the internet, you can always use Tox through Tor.
>>54089600
just use tox
Isn't it in limbo?
I've been using the Signal desktop client instead.
>>54089712
>centralized servers
>>54089694
leaks IPs
>>54089789
that was a meme 3 years ago
tox uses onion routing now
>>54089789
No. If you're going to troll Tox, try and at least pick something that's actually broken, like the multi-device problem, name-to-ID mapping, or offline messaging.
Or you could even bring up how all the clients are shit.
>>54081955
you're late to the party, this piece of shit's dead
>>54089694
why would I want to talk to any of 12 tox users?
>>54089807
>3 years ago
about the time tox became irrelevant?
>>54089880
https://toxstats.com/
They actually generate a fair amount of users every month, for an alpha project
>>54081955
Stop enabling terrorists you scum.
>>54089600
>just use xmpp + otr
What is this, 2004?
This shit still exists?
>>54089899
It's dead
>>54095288
>3000 active users
>it's dead
>>54081955
I use it
>>54081955
i really, really, really like this logo
>>54096257
>3000 users
>not dead
>>54096408
save it, it's all yours my friend
>>54084971
>you can dump all of tox users IP addresses by abusing the DHT, and you can lookup a specific tox users IP address with the DHT too!
You nigger
This was fixed years ago. Get this in your thick nigger skull and stop posting bullshit, you ass fucked faggot.
Tox could have been great but that shit eating pakistani carpet salesman stqism managed to kill whatever forward momentum we had by spending all the money on prostitutes
>>54097820
>stq stole money from the tox foundation meme
>>54098726
He did dummy
If tox is such utter shit, what is the alternative?
xmpp + otr doesn't allow for encrypted group chats so gtfo.
>>54100609
There's retroshare but it's more bloated and fewer people use it.
>>54081955
I'm not currently using it, but I got their website bookmarked with the tag "to do."
>>54081987
Spoken like a true cuck
