Fair enough, 'complete' might be the wrong word here too (as you do not have to support all XEPs), but currently my biggest problem is, that Conversations (Android XMPP client) works pretty good (something I would consider 'complete' in terms of messaging), but I could not find any desktop client which works on a similar feature level. For example how many desktop clients support OMEMO, MAM and Carbon copies? Those are just 3 XEPs all related to secure multi device communication. Yes, they haven't reached the status recommended yet, but I think that is more a symptom than the root of the problem.

Desktop client support is lacking, but I think Dino (a relative newcomer) does a pretty good job of being compatible with Conversations and being "modern" (for some handwavey value of "modern") messenger based on XMPP: https://dino.im/ https://dino.im/

  Last time I tried Dino was 4th August, but I can't remember what made me stick with Pidgin. But hey, if Sam Whited suggests Dino I will try it again :-D I love the XMPP and Golang stuff you are doing. And far as I can see it Dino seems to have pretty good XEP collection nowadays: https://github.com/dino/dino/wiki/Supported-XEPs https://github.com/dino/dino/wiki/Supported-XEPs

    > Last time I tried Dino was 4th August, but I can't remember what made me stick with Pidgin. Dino's still relatively new software so it may not be all that stable yet (I don't actually use it enough to know). I hope it works out for you though; it looks nice if nothing else! > I love the XMPP and Golang stuff you are doing. Thanks! It's still very early days and I don't get a lot of time to work on it, but I'm glad someone has seen it and found it useful.
