[–] dontblink@feddit.it 6 points 9 months ago (2 children) Xmpp, IRC, Matrix, all great decentralized alternatives, but good luck convincing people in contacting you on Xmpp... This problem is a problem because it's a social tendency, not because we don't have alternatives.. Very sadly... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] E_coli42@lemmy.world 1 point 8 months ago This is definitely the biggest barrier. I'm not sure what the proper solution is. Probably needs government backing. Ive convinced a decent chunk of my friends to message me on Signal by simply being unresponsive on WhatsApp lol. It's much harder to get people to use Matrix instead of Discord though... permalink fedilink source parent [–] visnudeva@lemmy.ml -1 points 9 months ago (1 child) XMPP is great but my wife hates it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] CleoCommunist@lemmy.ml 0 points 9 months ago* (1 child) Hi Sorry can i ask what Is XMPP?

I also used simplex before but it didn't work well enough, the video calls were laggy. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] CleoCommunist@lemmy.ml 1 point 9 months ago (1 child) What client do you suggest?
