Please see my response to #555 : https://github.com/ricochet-im/ricochet/issues/555#issuecomment-324094653

While it's true the main client hasn't seen many updates, there is plenty of on going development happening projects related to ricochet.

I think Pascal (and Object Pascal) is more easy than go (in all) and there is an IM software called torchat in which latest versions are based on him (Pascal and Object Pascal).

@s-rah you mentioned in #555 about the need for UX input. If that was available, what are the post pressing needs?

ghost commented 6 years ago

@burdges can you please share a link to Biar? I can't find it through searching.

It is not for desktop devices.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Thanks. Any other analogous projects but for desktop? I know there is an OTR plugin for pidgin (but pidgin doesn't use Tor).

ghost commented 6 years ago

TorChat but it was also abandoned. First, it was written in Python, later, in Pascal.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Pascal version it is only supported by pidgin.

ghost commented 6 years ago

When you say "also" that implies the current one is abandoned too?

ghost commented 6 years ago

I think this but i didn't want to put it. I am not sure, really.
