Hello. I am looking for an alternative to Telegram and I prefer an application that uses decentralised servers. My question is: why is the xmpp+omemo protocol not recommended on websites when it is open source and decentralised? The privacyguides.org website does not list xmpp+omemo as a recommended messaging service. Nor does this website include it in its comparison of private messaging services.

Why do you think xmpp and its messaging clients such as Conversations, Movim, Gajim, etc. do not appear in these guides?

    Kind of similar to how horrendous experiments in humans in the past have provided a lot of insight in the field of medicine, to benefit us all.

    Is that the takeaway? Maybe I’m missing something big right on my nose.
