XMPP - now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. I thought the woke Google chat federation and subsequent drop pretty much killed it off - but I'm glad to be wrong.
Are there XMPP based group chat/Matrix/Discord alternatives?
XMPP itself is the alternative, and the client you use shapes the user experience. If you want something that's comfortable for large chat rooms and dealing with a handful of them on desktop, gajim is hard to beat IMO, if you want something web, movim and conversejs are good alternatives :)
There is whole social network built on top of it. https://movim.eu
