Bog standard Jabber except for the changes they make - group messaging, 'seen' notifications, in line attachments, 'stickers' are all proprietary stuff which a standard jabber client doesn't support, unfortunately. Their Facebook Messenger for Windows client was discontinued earlier this month unfortuntaely, so I'm back using Trillian and boy do I miss the group messaging feature.

(genuine question, I don't use FB chat) How is group messaging different from MUC[1]? The naming group messaging sounds alike, but I don't know the internals of FBs feature. in line attachments is also possible[2] - I assume you mean sending files, embedding photos in messages and such? As for seen and stickers I don't know of a XMPP equivalent, but I am curious as to why MUC wasn't used instead of proprietary group messaging.
