Happy Birthday to #InstantMessaging and #RealTimeCommunication with #XMPP!
Emerged from the聽 #Jabber #community in 1999 and originally designed to provide an open and #decentralised alternative to #ICQ and #MSN, XMPP evolved to an independent alternative for todays #chat apps.

One thing that really pisses me off personally is the #regression in terms of #Messenger#Apps.
My personal distaste and dislike for #proprietary, #SingleVendor & #SingleProvider #services like #Signal鹿, #Telegram, #Discord虏, #WhatsApp, #Slack, #MicrosoftTeams, etc. aside:
WHY is there no #CrossProvider#Messenger to handle that shite?
WHY does everyone of these shitty providers think people want to download their #bloated#WebApp that takes up triple digit Megabytes if not entire Gigabytes and will gobble up all the #RAM and #CPU they can??
This problem ain't new and already got solved for corporate social media ages ago! (Not to mention actually good messengers!)
I mean API 0 - style access because obviously none of the platforms will allow, endorse or support such an endeavour and actively fight the developers and users !
So yeah, consider this a call for a @gajim / #Gajim or @pidgin / #Pidginfor garbage platforms!
