@wrongthink Yeah, but if email caught on, then there is no reason for XMPP not to.

This protocol [XMPP] has been around since 1999, yet for some reason, has never caught on.
For some reason… the same reason that industry has tried to bury music file management in favor of streaming. Or to bury RSS in favor of timelines and recommended content. There’s so much fracturing of features (particularly video chat) among XMPP clients that I’m only left to wonder if there has been (or is ongoing) deliberate sabotage of these projects by interests involved with commercial things like zoom and discord.
