For less to techy people I think fluxer is better. https://fluxer.app/ So far it just works for me. No hassle.
No mobile app, single provider and no federation to ensure a healthy and sustainable ecosystem of service providers…hell no. Can’t we learn a thing from all this? Which is that centralisation just leads to the same endless cycle of capture and exploitation? XMPP and federated protocols stand to correct that, and now is the right time to shift the paradigm.
I agree that decentralizing is the solution. But there is no use having a decentralized system that no one cares to use. If the normies can’t get down with it then its no use. I’m going to give xmpp a go, but my guess is that it will not be normie-friendly.
Fluxer is very untested and also run by a single commercial company (afaik). It looks promising, but I would not recommend it right now, maybe in a few years once it becomes clear where this is heading.
If you want a less techy people friendly app then there is https://movim.eu/ that works quite well and is proven tech based on XMPP.
