Huge thanks to @mattj and @ralphm for their time today. I'm delighted to be getting acquainted with leadership at @xmpp – there are _so_ many things we can learn from each other and collaborate on.

It's free, open, federated communications versus the forces of centralization and proprietary walled gardens!

The free communication providers would profit a lot from standardization. I will never understand why Matrix invented their own incompatible protocol instead of being compliant with the #XMPP internet standard and improving on the existing extensions. I feel like #Matrix did more damage to open IM than it helped.
