I see the matrix is more popular than xmpp, but why?
You must log in or register to comment.
That’s the reason I use matrix, I have bridges so that if someone messages me on ANY platform, it goes to matrix and I can respond there.
It’s not the best solution, but it’s worked well for me and I like having everything in one app
I thought there were bridges for xmpp too, is that not true?
Yes there are. I haven’t used them in years tho.
Yes, and with fresh new releases of the software.
XMPP parlance calls it “gateways” https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0100.html
Is that possible without self hosting?
There’s a company called Beeper that hosts a server with a bunch of bridges pre-configured.
