The first voice chat app I used with friends was Roger Wilco back in 1999. We later moved to TeamSpeak, Ventrilo and Mumble. I loved how simple and self-hostable they were. Then Discord came along...With Moin, we wanted to bring some of that simplicity back. We focus on two things: low-latency voice chat and smooth 60 fps screen sharing. A modern take on the classics.There is no account, no...
You find a community that shares the same interest as you and start chatting :)
I have a background in macOS applications, back when it was Objective-C. I have always loved native apps. When i decided to start Halloy the goal was to create a native application for multiple platforms, and for that Rust is perfect.
if you type /mode it should show the mode next to the channel name. this should happen automatically - will look into that. i'll also add the nick-user mode next to the input field. a few has requested it.
I am glad you like it, macmac.

I started working on Halloy back in 2022, with the goal of giving something back to the community I’ve been a part of for the past two decades. I wanted to create a modern, multi-platform IRC client written in Rust.Three years later, I’ve made new friends who have become core contributors, and there are now over 200 people idling in our #halloy channel on Libera.My hope is that this client will...
I've spent over 20 years on IRC and im still on every day. Two years ago, I felt the community could use more client options, so I created Halloy. It has since become my primary spare-time project, and I love seeing people enjoy IRC.
Thank you! I’ll reach out.
Yes, but promise not to laugh: "application icon, a side view of a fat seagull". Fat seagull :D
This is Iced, not Tauri.
Yeah, it's been a productive month. Once you get hooked it's hard to stop.
It's made with the Midjourney niji engine and finished up in Photoshop.
Iced is awesome. Slightly biased being a contributed though :)
I would recommend
https://libera.chat/. There are a ton of great channels: ##rust, #linux, #networking, #security to mention a few.

I am very proud of the code base, but there's many places to optimize. I welcome contributions if you want to help out!
Thank you! I don't plan to support other games than World of Warcraft for now. But the code base is split into a core and gui part so it should be easy to fork and modify to your needs!
I like it a lot. But by saying that, don't get confused by the overall state Rust GUI applications are in: immature[0]. I have a background in native iOS and macOS development and this is another game. However I have not regretted choosing Rust for this project. I wanted to natively support both Windows, Linux and macOS and at the same time learn the language. This was my first proper Rust application and I've learned so much.
The limitation Iced has have actually done something good for the simplicity of Ajour. People are liking this simple look because the application is just a tool. There is no need for fancy animations.

Thanks for the kind words.
Github repos is unfortunately not possible right now but it should be easy to add further down the road. I'll make a issue and add it to the roadmap.
Hi everyone, author of Ajour here.
Ajour is a World of Warcraft addon manager written in Rust. The main reason I started this project was to take my Rust skills to the next level, and avoid using the bloated Twitch application. Truth is, this is my first real application in Rust, and what a journey it has been. There's still features missing, a few bugs here and there and many places were I could optimize the code but all in all, I am very proud the current state.
