As an XMPP fan, I support this:
"What if we could make a Signal that was a little more open? And an XMPP that was a little bit less diverse? Accept that we would trade some of the agility for robustness, and some of our diversity in favour of consistent usability.
Can we move beyond Signal’s flaws to build something that is open, interoperable, user-friendly, consistent and decentralized? I believe so, and as they say, there’s only one way to find out."
