- in other news, I’ve been slowly reviewing [[XMPP]] space to see if it ‘makes the cut’ functionality/friendliness wise and so far my results are negative. I know that people have expressed a preference for XMPP messaging over Matrix in the past, and I understand the concerns with the foundation some people have, but at this point I personally don’t see how to make XMPP work well enough for the "average user" of 2025. I checked out clients and they are all in (IMHO) not-good-enough state, in particular on mobile, except for maybe Conversations which is paid in app stores so not the most inclusive option (loading from fdroid would work for some users, but not for the majority I think).
