    google hangouts is proprietary and xmpp/jabber still exists.

      Hangouts was built on xmpp, and used to allow federation. Yes xmpp still exists but it’s functionally dead.

        google talk was built on it; hangouts is a completely new application.

        xmpp is still around; it’s just competing with matrix.
