Isn’t this true of most open source software in iOS?
The intersection of developers who want to develop on and for a proprietary walled platform and also want to work on open source clients for open standard, descentralised protocol must be pretty small.
- MattJ100 1y agoAs an open-source XMPP project, we tried hard to find iOS developers willing to help with development (as volunteers, or even paid) and it's just so hard to find people in this intersection of interests. If anyone reading this thread has iOS dev skills and cares about improving open-source messaging on iOS, feel free to get in touch.
- morshu9001 1y agoI'm not even against the walled garden, it's just that developing on iOS is really painful compared to, say, web.
- morshu9001 1y agoOh and I have made an iOS app that uses XMPP before, but it wasn't general purpose chat.
