With the recent discussion of FastMail shutting down their XMPP chat server[0], I thought it&#x27;d be interesting to share the history of chat services that sameroom.io just sent out in an email.<p>Doing a ctrl-f&#x2F;cmd-f for &quot;XMPP&quot; on the site only shows 6 matches, which says something about the lack of adoption of the standard. Not to imply causation through correlation, but it would indicate that the XMPP standard is lacking, seeing as everyone creates their own&#x2F;uses another standard instead.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=10572597" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=10572597</a>
