Profanity: Resource override is forgotten on presence change

Created on 5 Mar 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: profanity-im/profanity

The command /resource set <resource> forces messages to be sent to a specific resource. When messages are received from another resource, messages are still sent to <resource> as expected.

However, when the contact's presence changes, the resource override is no longer used.

Okay. Let's remove resource locking for 0.8.0.
Displaying resource in UI will of course still be supported.

Not sure whether we should remove that functionality alltogether due to what is written on: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/XMPP_2.0

If we want to have this still we should only reset the resource once the one currently is set goes offline.

Like #912 i would vote for dismissing this feature as well.

Actually I think setting the resource according to the presence is what should happen.
Also I assume that almost everybody uses Carbons now, so all the clients will receive the messages anyway.

I'll close this issue for this reason.
