XMPP is here. Don't forget about it.
#xmpp

Matrix remains terrible, and it really does suck that we don't have XMPP clients that look like Slack or Discord.

Holy moly, I have an XMPP account under the same handle as my email address. Is it 2009 again?

"The modern Firebase Cloud Messaging is actually still XMPP-based to this day, though. Of course, it has been separated from Google Talk now."
man, what??

En contra de lo que escribí a principio de año, me he instalado Delta Chat para volver a probarla e intentar convencer a gente de mi entorno para comunicarnos por ahí.

Si alguien quiere, tengo el enlace en mi bio.
La verdad es que, tiene unas ventajas tan grandes en comparación con XMPP... No digamos ya las centralizadas, que son un asco por lo de que todos los usuarios dependamos de un mismo cibertizo en Virginia

I mean totally what to use?
My family complains,
Signal drains too much battery.
Calling via Matrix is weird •_•
XMPP clients are ugly :|
I'm tired of this. I need something that really works.

This Fediverse Enhancement Proposal describes a way to attach a chat room to ActivityPub actors and objects.
The chat room itself can be a web page, a XMPP room,
a Matrix room,
an IRC channel, ...
The chat itself does not necessarily publish messages using ActivityPub.

Technologically I would probably appreciate XMPP more, but the Matrix ecosystem I find much more usable and mature.

My vps 1cpu stopped running reliably, thanks to #matrix using huge amounts of disk
Setting up #xmpp with a reverse proxy is undocumented.

"We must solve this incredibly difficult scalability problem, and the only way to do that is to outsource such expertise" is a sign that your basic design is flawed.
Yes, this is a Signal subtoot, and I'm still salty about the embrace-and-extinguish behavior of tech monopolies with XMPP.

DeltaChat is a cool idea but should be cranked to the max. Fuck protocols, instant messaging has never been been about the protocol but the network effect.
Not everyone knows how to login to their email outside of the web browser, a chat client should facilitate speech between you and your friend’s favourite app.
These are all open protocols that allow for direct communication but garden off others: activitypub, email, irc, matrix, xmpp, bluesky, nostr, simplex, theema, tox, jam…
