Hey all. I started writing an XMPP client just for learning purposes and I’m not sure on how widely used it actually is. Where is it actually used? Are there communities out there that actually use it?
Wasn’t sure where to actually post this. Sorry if its a bit off topic
We have an !xmpp@slrpnk.net community here on Lemmy. Our SLRPNK instance also gives an XMPP account to every member automatically and hosts a Movim webclient for easy access.
XMPP is certainly more popular for private groups and 1:1 chatting so you will not find that many large public channels, but there is a search engine here: https://search.jabber.network/tags/
The JoinJabber project also has a curated list of recommended channels and communities: https://joinjabber.org/docs/faqs/rooms/
Is there a use case with bots and xmpp?
What do you mean with bots in this context?
