Screenshos from the repo:
No aarch64 builds yet, but I have opened an issue. Might have a look at building this, as I cannot wait to try this on my phone (Pixel 3a/Mobian).

I'm really happy to see that they shamelessly ripped off discord. We saw with bluesky that having an ultra-familiar UX is a big advantage.
For mobile linux, I'm going to stick with Dino. I like that it is lightweight, natively supported and integrates well with the rest of the system thanks to libadwaita.
I'm disappointed that contributors have to sign a CLA that allows them to relicense to proprietary licenses. So, all the power goes to them.

I've never used Discord, so I thought "Oh, like Element, but less broken! Fancy."
I'm not a fan of Bluesky, but good point! Might recommend that client to a lot of people once it can do OMEMO.
I just miss ad-hoc commands, which Fluux already does. I'd prefer libadwaita as well, but having a way to config my IRC transport on the go is great. Gajim mostly works on the phone, but not as well as Fluux.
Pretty sure there'd be a community fork pretty quickly, as this is already one of the clients with the most clean UI.

That makes a lot of sense. I hope it works well on the phone!
Yeah, in fairness I'm probably overreatcting a bit. One of the things I really like about XMPP is the diversity of stakeholders and developers. I would be really sad if that went away.

Title is rather misleading. It runs on OP's phone because he's running a debian based mobile os. This won't run on your android phone.

It's posted under Linux phones.

Yes. It is. Thank you. This was supposed to be a reply to the 'no apk' comment. I hit the wrong reply arrow. Thanks for pointing it out.

Yes it was and Android support is even planned as well, according to the README. But this is very early days for this client, so it's not there yet. Just as Flatpak support is also not there yet, as the dev hasn't yet figured it out fully according to the recent commits.

It uses Tauri2 which does support Android. There isn't an Android version of this XMPP client yet, but it is on the roadmap.
