@tommertron harm is that they practically destroyed XMPP when it was rapidly growing. It never benefits a company to be just a single server in a federated network and not having control over it. Imagine, how can they make money by displaying ads and spying on users, when users can just jump to another server and avoid all of that?

@takeda@techhub.social@tommertron@masto.yttrx.com This is a weird take, XMPP was never growing wildly outside of the couple large companies who implemented it. XMPP basically didn’t exist except for the fact that Google Talk used it, so unsurprisingly, it died when Google stopped talking to it.
