  • Seriously, if you do take one verse from the whole response, you get straw men you fighting with.

    I just told you that jabber / xmpp was created in the times almost nobody knew or believed mobile phones can be a thing. Thus it got created in that way: many similarities of xmpp and e-mail, irc or icq which didn’t stand the passage of time.

    Of course, you’re right xmpp evolved to get PubSub extension as an “optional feature” but because of its availability (or rather lack) - most servers didn’t support it even the client did support, xmpp didn’t win the acceptance of the end-users. It got some attention in the business world (cisco jabber) but not in the retail.

    Business cannot work forever without clients willing to pay or at least use, so it died off even in the business.

    End of story, try not to fighting with the straw men you created.
