A new server implementation for the proprietary messengers MAX and TamTam has been developed by a community of enthusiasts. The project, known as an open server emulator, was created by reverse engineering the protocol for interaction with the official servers of MAX and TamTam. This emulator allows users to replace the official servers with this community-developed alternative, after making modifications to the client software.
The server emulator supports any clients that are compatible with the official server api.oneme.ru or api.tamtam.chat. Written in Python, the code for this emulator is openly available under the BSD license on GitHub. Users have the flexibility to choose between MariaDB, MySQL, or SQLite as their database management system for storing messages.
