A brand new messaging app is coming to the Fediverse, and it's all thanks to the creator of Pixelfed.

A new messaging app is in development, and the project is described as “an open source WhatsApp for the Fediverse.”

    There is this wierd meme that IRC is “outdated” and XMPP is “dead”, both of which is completely untrue, but somehow the tech-bro hivemind continues to spout this nonsense when ever the topic comes up.

      AFAIK the most complained about thing with xmpp is that there are so many standards and every server isn’t guaranteed to implement them. That and just being old which is no curse but people take that as a negative sometimes.

      It’s honestly pretty good IMO.
