XMPP VS teddit

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: 12 months ago

That's essentially what we had with Jabber/XMPP [0] and OTR [1]. Since the encryption happened client-side, it would also work across networks. There was a time when Google chat, Facebook Messengers and other high profile chat networks could all interconnect through it. [0] https://xmpp.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

Xmpp there's loads of clients for it no phone number needed https://xmpp.org/ pick a server loads have sign up via the client. Source: over 1 year ago

I present to you a MUC I've created on the XMPP (also informally known as Jabber) network. I've put some thought into which network would be best fit and decided that, while IRC is an excellent way to chat, there is an apparent lack of mobile support and perhaps lacks the ability to choose a server of your choice. Furthermore, I've concluded for many years that Matrix isn't a good choice for multiple concerning... Source: over 1 year ago

Interoperability of messaging used to be the case, and the underlying tech is there. At one point, Messages, AOL Instant Messenger, Facebook, and Google Talk / Hangouts / Voice all supported exchanging messages via the IETF XMPP (Jabber) messaging standard. Sometime in the mid 2010s, the services started removing XMPP support, presumably in an order to differentiate their platforms and lock people in. Source: almost 2 years ago

There used to be an open javascript-free site you could use called Bibliogram.art, but it's been discontinued. (Same as teddit.net for Reddit and Nitter.net for Twitter.). Source: 10 months ago

Teddit.net still seems to work. Free. Open Source. No Javascript. No Ads. Privacy Respecting. Source: 10 months ago

Does deleting my account do anything more to than just moving to Narwhal? Because I still want to be able to actively participate in the two or three subs I care about and I like https://teddit.net/ but, it's slow, doesn't have an app, and I cant actually interact with anything. I ask because when you delete your account, everything stays except for just the account itself, so will just using narwhal have any more... Source: 10 months ago

I'm not sure what to better call them than mirrors, but some examples are teddit, kddit, and currently or perhaps permanently down are libreddit and lurrker. I assume they're not scraping reddit for content which means using the API, and since they seem pretty up to date, it must mean a lot of API calls right? Does anyone know what the future holds for sites like these? I tried searching the web a bit to find an... Source: 10 months ago
