@lispi314 IRC & nntp are perfectly usable today, it's just that they are not easy to monitise

@dekkzz76 @lispi314 I use XMPP and IRC on a daily basis. Both are still working fine. The hackint.org network for example offers XMPP and IRC.

@dekkzz76 @lispi314 XMPP is not the most popular protocol, but it is far from dead. We've got- people making a living with XMPP development- recent new client and server software (dino / snikket)- new features (a/v calls)- upcoming features (emoji reactions, implemented in dino, coming soon to conversations)- XMPP as a part of popular software stacks (yunohost, jitsi meet)Of all the technologies is use to keep up with friends and family, XMPP is the one I use the most. Them being: XMPP, briar, IRC, email, SMS, phone.#xmpp #conversations #dino #snikket

@dekkzz76 @lispi314 > Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate. Unlike traditional messaging apps, Briar doesn’t rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users’ devices. If the internet’s down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis. If the internet’s up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.https://briarproject.org/how-it-works/I use it with very nerdy, privacy-focused friends.

@dekkzz76 @lispi314 Briar is very nice, if you worry about one of the big downsides of XMPP: leaking metadata.Even if you control the XMPP server yourself, just watching the network will allow attackers to deduct who is communicating with whom.If this is a greater concern to you, than being able to do a/v calls and receiving offline messages, #briar is a great tool.
