google hangouts is proprietary and xmpp/jabber still exists.

[–] Dran_Arcana@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hangouts was built on xmpp, and used to allow federation. Yes xmpp still exists but it's functionally dead.

google talk was built on it; hangouts is a completely new application.

xmpp is still around; it's just competing with matrix.
