I recently started looking into more decentralized instant messengers after being on signal for a year or so. I’m happy with signal but just wanted to look into what else is out there. I really don’t get why XMPP gets left in the dust. I see so much praise for matrix, but every public group ive joined is full of spam bots and racists. Simplex is centralized. Even as far as the fediverse goes, I would’ve assumed everyone here would hype up XMPP since it works similarly with the [email protected] convention.
No love for XMPP ??
