If you were wondering how well #XMPP works on mobile devices: The XMPP-based MoyaApp has 6.5M users in South Afrika 🇿🇦.

@daniel wasn't WhatsApp XMPP in it's early days, too?

Is this moya app closed community or does it allow using federated XMPP?

@aslmx @daniel

To the best of my knowledge, those are still based on XMPP, but not necessarily standards compliant:

Google FCM, WhatsApp, Kik, Zoom, Fortnite, Nintendo Switch, Grindr, Jitsi...

@debacle @aslmx @daniel WhatsApp also does do some binary over the wire encoding of the XML to save some bandwidth...

@daniel is it open to discuss with jabber network or it is a closed network using #xmpp as backend?

> They also found that, at the time, there was a widespread view that “apps steal your money so don’t put apps on your phone.” People did not realise the apps were being updated to make them more efficient, but they just saw it as their data being stolen.

They're not half wrong, though. 🤡
