Hello fellow people of #Mastodon.

Hello fellow people of #Mastodon. I have a fun program to share with all of you. Imagine, a messenger client a lot like how it was back in the early 2000's. Think simple buttons, totally screen reader #Accessible, servers that you can run yourselves, and all available for #Windows and #Linux users. If you're wanting something like this, consider Thrive messenger, created as an open-source program by my friends @alexchapman and @cubic If you like it, #Boost it far and wide. Let's support fellow Mastodonians. https://github.com/G4p-Studios/ThriveMessenger/releases/latest #SocialMedia

@NicksWorld @ke7zum @alexchapman @cubic Is this a mastodon client or is this for a different social network?
-

@Georgie @ke7zum @alexchapman @cubic It's not for a different social network, its its own thing.
-
@Georgie @ke7zum @alexchapman @cubic It's not for a different social network, its its own thing.
@NicksWorld @Georgie @ke7zum @cubic But Mastodon will eventually be integrated into it as a service, there will be a services section in the program.
-
@Georgie @ke7zum @alexchapman @cubic It's not for a different social network, its its own thing.
@NicksWorld @ke7zum @alexchapman @cubic Oh so it’s basically its own social network?
-
@NicksWorld @ke7zum @alexchapman @cubic Oh so it’s basically its own social network?
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic No, its like what MSN/Live Messenger used to be.
-
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic No, its like what MSN/Live Messenger used to be.
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic That's a little before my time. Would you mind please explaining?
-
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic That's a little before my time. Would you mind please explaining?
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Basically, MSN Messenger, later called Windows Live Messenger, had an easy to use interface and no bloated crap like what FB Messenger has. Thrive Messenger tries to bring back the easy and fun experience of messaging, while also being modern to work with the latest devices and operating systems.

@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Alright, that makes sense, but what platform does it use to send messages?
-
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Alright, that makes sense, but what platform does it use to send messages?
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Its just basic Python stuff.
-
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Its just basic Python stuff.
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Oh I see, so it can’t actually send messages yet?
-
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Oh I see, so it can’t actually send messages yet?
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Yes it can.
-
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Oh I see, so it can’t actually send messages yet?
@Georgie @alexchapman @ke7zum @cubic It definitely does send and receive messages.
-
@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Yes it can.
@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Yeah but how? If it doesn’t use any social network or messaging platform how do the messages get sent and how do you indicate where they go to? This is where my age is showing.

@NicksWorld @alexchapman @cubic I'm going to have to test it on linux.
-

@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic It uses the Python standard library, there's something in there that does this sort of stuff, I don't know the whole thing like the low level aspects, I just know that it works and that's good.

@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic LOL I’m still confused. Do you have to create some sort of account somewhere? How would it be able to identify the difference between people?
-

@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Yeah, the client has a login dialog, and an option to create an account on the default server that is all set up.

@alexchapman @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic Alright, now I understand. Would still love to be able to use mastodon and perhaps some other services with it at some point and still have that nice clean interface.

@Georgie @NicksWorld @ke7zum @cubic That's definitely in the works. The Mastodon stuff is in its own separate repo as development on that takes a while and has its own things that need implementing, and once its at a point where its not missing a lot of the crutial stuff then it will be merged into a single repo and worked on alongside this, and eventually the services section will be created and that's how the Mastodon service will be accessed.
