I'm still sitting on the sidelines waiting. (A second issue was that single-vendor thing you mentioned. It may be federated in theory, but due to the overwhelming dominance of matrix.org, in practicality it is centralized.) -

You might try #Matrix instead. The "everything is a room" thing is really weird and disconcerting, but other than that, it is okay. For clients, there is Riot web, Riot Android. (I presume they have an iOS version, but I've never looked.) -

maiki (maiki)'s status on Friday, 05-Jan-2018 19:14:17 UTC maiki @lnxw48a1 As a service provider, anything I host is an endorsement, ya know? I will be saying, "hey folks, this is good stuff, and you should trust it". #Jabber has options (few as they may be), and is fairly active for such a broad field of interest and passion. Matrix could still live or die based on the personalities of a few people. I am not sure I want to put folks in that scenario, so #Matrix may mature, but it isn't like we are missing anything in the meantime. Let's see how it evolves!
