A: Google & Facebook shut down their XMPP gateways to force you into their apps. All the sudden you use Pidgin to communicate with people on google & facebook. At least that was my experience. I used to use Pidgin with OTR[0] for e2e encrypted chat over google & facebook.

Why so pesimisstic. In a sane world (and probably in the world where they want to say "just use WhatsApp, we're better!") they'll say "This user is using an unencrypted app. [Paragraph about how all your nudes and contents of bank account will be stolen].

We currently have the Matrix protocol, with client applications such as Element supporting it. We also have XMPP as another option. Generally more modern than IRC, these platforms are primarily developed as FOSS software. This makes it less likely for developers to impact their users negatively. However, despite these advantages, these platforms lack the refined user experience (addictiveness and stickiness) that... Source: about 1 year ago
