It would (will..?) be a crying shame to see XMPP grind to a halt - but I suspect, sadly, that the honest answer to the question is "not one heck of a lot really". I don't know if it got started too early, or moved too slowly, or what - but in the end, it missed its boat.
- ausjke 10y agowhat's the universal alternative for XMPP?
- JustSomeNobody 10y agoIn the U.S.? SMS is as close to universal as one can get (which is to say, not very).
- josteink 10y ago> In the U.S.? Try reading the bit which says "universal" again before answering next time. And how do you run your own SMS server for family and friends off the internet? What a worthless suggestion.

- camus2 10y agoXMPP is great for back-end applications and internal messaging for businesses, and is not going away, the issue is the "consumer space" where every big vendor has its own XMPP like protocol but slightly broken to be incompatible with generic clients.
