Unable to chat with contacts that have end-to-end encryption enabled #222

Open svennidal opened 4 months ago

svennidal commented 4 months ago

Message from contacts that have end-to-end encryption enabled don't show up. Sending them a message with /msg crashes the connection and bitlbee reconnects.

Yea and new conversations don't get opened in bitlbee.

I've been having a look at this and Facebook is forcing upgrades to end-to-end encrypted conversations. You can't downgrade the conversation without deleting the existing one, and there's no option in the parameters to disable it.

Seems like the beginning of the end for bitlbee-facebook, unless someone takes over the maintainer role and codes end-to-end encryption in bitlbee (if even possible)
