It seems like an awesome project that fulfills a lot of the requirements for bridging many popular messaging platforms (like FB messenger, WhatsApp, discord, signal, and more). I wanted to share because I know a lot of us have friends and family who still use antiquated/proprietary communication platforms. Fair warning, I have not tried self hosting it myself yet since my server is kinda of a mess right now. Lmk what y’all think.

Yes, it’s totally fantastic, and I’m not biased at all when I talk about it. xD
Understandable. I have to agree (though I have no experience to back it up)
So… this is like Matrix bridged but for XMPP? Great!
Yeah Spectrum does the same thing, been around over a decade!
I looked it up but it doesn’t seem to have support for many messengers.
It does support a crazy amount of networks (it uses libpurple which is the lib of pidgin), unfortunately it lacks modern features and even groups don’t work that well. I actually started to work on slidge because I was fed up with spectrum2’s limitations and realised that spectrum2’s maintainer think, like many others, that XMPP is dead…
It supports everything that is supported by libpurple
