Pidgin SSL Handshake Failed

Hello, I am getting this error when trying to connect to an xmpp server using Pidgin after “parrot-upgrade” to latest version. Can anyone help me please?
debug gives this error: nss: Handshake failed (-12251)

Similar issue has been reported here with a workaround way. Please give it a try.

The workaround in that thread worked for me as well. (Using NSS 
Preferences plugin to change maximum TLS version to 1.2.) It seems 
something is causing issues if TLS 1.3 is permitted, there is some 
discussion of proposed patches.```
