@dynamic Conversations on Android and Gajim on the desktop. Modern native clients, which don't cause much problems.

Thanks for your response. I've heard good things about Gajim before. But also I seem to be having trouble getting it to install correctly on Ubuntu 22.04, so I'm interested in learning what all else is out there.
In the meantime, I'm still using Pidgin, which people seem to find confusing, but it does seem to work?

@dynamic What problems do you have installing Gajim?
I'm never used Pidgin, but I heard the XMPP part is pretty outdated. Of course, if it works for you, I won't tell you to use something else :)

I tried to install the Gajim package via the Ubuntu 22.04 database of standard packages, and it did install, but it keeps freezing or crashing. When I first set up my XMPP account, there was some kind of glitching when I tried to submit the information (I unfortunately don't remember details). I may have needed to force quit. After that initial time, I've been able to open the desktop app, and it seems to open, but all I ever see is a list with my XMPP account listed. If I try to interact with it in any way it hangs and/or crashes.
