- severak_cz 3y agoThey provided XMPP gate - it did not federated with other servers but you were able to use multi-account client (e.g. Pidgin) and have it everything in one window. I did exactly that.
- sseagull 3y agoI seem to remember being able to chat with Facebook users from my personal server, but it doesn’t look like it was possible [1]. Actually, searching for this stuff made me sad :( There are blog posts from Facebook still up about how they are using XMPP [2]. There are still notes out there on setting it up in Pidgin [3]. The internet has become a walled-off mess, and it makes me depressed to see such a powerful and wonderful technology abused like this.

PS: looking through the other posts on the fb developer blog (just changing the number in the url) is interesting.
