And I haven't used XMPP for about 20 of them (sadly)

  There was a time where both Google Chat (whatever it was called back then I lost track) and Facebook Chat were built on it. So you might have.

    You're right. I know at least one company used XMPP for things like customer support chat too. So maybe I have. I just mean the last time I used it intentionally was a long time ago before I was worn down futilely trying to convince friends to use it instead of locked down chat apps.

      That's fair, no worries.

    Google Talk - and it was an actual federating XMPP server, in contrast to Facebook which merely allowed you to login with an XMPP client.

      There was a point where Google and Facebook supported external clients, and then within the same year both Google and Facebook closed up to any external clients, then ultimately ditching XMPP.

        It's a shame that we didn't get antitrust enforcement imposing interoperability requirements on them back then.

  25 years of independence and, dare I say, irrelevance.
