@jsoriano @aral The point here is not that that made XMPP go away. It's still here. But hardly anyone uses it now.

We could go back to it tomorrow.

@fishidwardrobe @aral for me the point is to don't trust them, they are doing this only for their business, not for the people.

@jsoriano @aral Don't trust who? Facebook? Sure? One of the hundred or so independent XMPP servers still running? Not so much. list.jabber.at/

@fishidwardrobe @aral yes Meta, or any other big player that expresses support for an open protocol.

Absolutely false. That is a very common misconception that has me scratching my head on a regular basis.

@walruslifestyle @jsoriano @aral That's lovely to know. I must just be having the worst luck with it then.

There's one person I talk to on XMPP and once every six months whatever server I'm on shuts down and I have to pick a new one.

I think we've given up and switched to email.
