@ipg XMPP is brilliant. I used to be able to chat with Facebook Messenger uses from Google Talk. Wild times. Sucks that all the major players built their audience with it then locked the doors.

Even WhatsApp essentially, as I understand it, still use XMPP just locked off from anyone else 😭

Maybe with the fediverse interest someone can cook up a federated Discord equivalent based on XMPP 🤔

@wiredfire XMPP protocol extensions support a lot of nice to have Discord features! the biggest issue would just be a client that has a similar UX. or just a good UX in general, that's something i can't find in any client...

@ipg in a past professional life it’s something I’d have tinkered with! Alas for now I can but dream 💭

@ipg@wetdry.world @wiredfire@mas.to i think matrix does a lot better in this regard, most of the clients i've used were actually really pleasant

though it definitely took it's time to get here, considering spaces are still a new feature
