I’ve been self hosting a matrix istance for a while, but I’m honestly really really tired of bugs on clients and authentication not working, I know matrix is very feature rich and is awesome that is federated, but I’d prefer to use something which loads my server less and which is more simple despite lacking some features, what do you think?
What features does XMPP not have?
https://xmpp.org/extensions/
https://providers.xmpp.net/
Not OP, but what I do lack here is a decent server Implementation in a single binary and easy deployment.
Also decent native clients for various platforms. Do we have any good ones?
This probably isn’t a xmpp specific, but I’d like to have it work like wireguard. If the keys are wrong, self hosted instance would just reject it on the packet level. Then only authorized clients could use it. Outgoing connection on some hub instance would give access to outside world. All this would help with self hosting.
I remember reading about Snikket (hope I remember the name right) which should address exactly this.
