Normal JIDs

[Fohroer]

Feature request
I want to communicate with normal Jabber contacts with Kontalk. The only problem is that Kontalk JID is a hash, not username. Is it possible to add normal logins as mirrors, so I can give my normal JID to person?
Example: [email protected]

Your Kontalk JID is "hash of your phone [email protected]" It's a normal JID 😉 You can pick it by "Three dot menue -> your Personal key".

@webratte yes, I know. But it's extremely long.

I'm sure, XMPP users can copy and Paste 😜

It's not possible to use JID aliases for this purpose, the only way to add a Kontalk user is to use the full JID. However we were thinking of using a "translation service" for phone numbers, i.e. you give the server a phone number, the server returns the full Kontalk JID (see kontalk/tigase-extension#62). However, the other XMPP client would need support for XEP-0100.
