Started using xmpp recently because messaging apps sucks . I want to see if anyone use this thing .
You must log in or register to comment.
With signals now usernames, why should I use xmpp? Ive heard of it before but it’ll be just another messaging app imo.
3 reasons for me:
-
XMPP implementations have been around so much longer than signal, to me signal would be “just another messaging app”
-
XMPP doesn’t require my phone number. Signal might give you the option to use usernames with your contacts, but still requires a valid number for registration last I checked.
-
I can self host an XMPP server instead of trusting/depending on someone else.
