Putting the format and security aside, isn't the main issue that XMPP was so good that we tried to bite more than it could chew? - Local Federation is great, but Global Federation doesn't benefit the big players - Extensibility is great for domain-specific problems, but it leads to more fragmentation - It tried to handle data streaming, but it's inherently suboptimal at it I mean, it was a great protocol to explore the IM design space, but it was bound to be replaced once we clarified our needs (for the most part, multiple devices and media streaming). As a side note, I often get showerthoughts about mixing IM and blockchain techs. I'm not sure where that would lead us.
