I heard that xmpp is hard to support/maintain on the server side and especially on mobile. The depreciation of xmpp actually also cussed the depreciation of Cloud Print since it depends on xmpp too. https://developers.google.com/cloud-print/docs/rawxmpp https://developers.google.com/cloud-print/docs/rawxmpp

Never heard anything about the server stuff. There used to be issues on mobile related to the fact that XMPP used long lived TCP connections. Disconnects would cause significant pauses in message delivery.

  There are still issues using traditional XMPP approach with stream management extension. That's why there are still no any xmpp client for iOS that is not complete crap. However, we work on releasing a new xmpp client based on reworked protocols to quickly sync chat state with server, it will work just like you expect a modern messenger to work. However, Wewdid stray rather far from 'XMPP compliance suite 2021' to achieve that.

Iirc gcm is still basically batched periodic xmpp messages?

  Yes, both FCM (as they are called now) and Apple's APNS seem to be using a customized XMPP connection.
