Would like to #askfedi about the "Conversations Legacy" #conversations #conversations_im @daniel #xmpp client - this version used to be on GooglePlay before some time, but later has disappeared, and I seem to have missed any "official" comment in that regard.
Do I understand correctly that it is just not supported/updated anymore and people who have it (I know somebody) shall update to the mainstream for security reasons?
Would the update recognize the old data or one should proceed via backup and its restoration (if it is possible)? Thanks.
@nanoelquant Please don't use Conversations Legacy. It's has multiple security issues. Update to (regular) Conversations as soon as possible.
@daniel Thanks!
Will the update be straightforward or one needs to backup/uninstall/install/load backup?
@nanoelquant
As i remember lagacy had no backup/restore. Actually version also not update version called legacy.
I would install it via https://f-droid.org store instead of google
@stubenhocker Oh... understood, thank you!
Yes, F-droid and eventual donation seems to be a more solid way than paying trough gplay.
