Back about 18y ago there was, er, Trillian (?) and you could have all your chats in one UI at least. If I were in charge chat apps would have to use federation with an open interchange format (RIP XMPP).
I think XMPP and Trillian might still be going but once Facebook, Microsoft and Google stopped playing nicely ...
