are there any actually decent XMPP clients on iOS?

@packetcat i’ve been using Siskin IM but it kinda sucks.
and i think i have used Monal in the past and i might be switching back to it since it’s under more active development and hopefully doesnt Suck as much.

I was looking at the list of XEPs supported by Prosody (XMPP server software) and one of them is the relatively new (2020) XEP-0357: Push Notifications
https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0357.html
which is in this module
https://prosody.im/doc/modules/mod_cloud_notify
which says
"Some clients, notably Siskin and Snikket iOS need some additional extensions that are not currently defined in a standard XEP. To support these clients, see mod_cloud_notify_extensions."
so it seems a couple clients do

I'm on the OMEMO website and uh people used to use OpenPGP to do E2E messaging for XMPP?! god that sounds hideous
I don't even know wtf "OX" is, I've only ever used OTR and OMEMO in the distant past when I used XMPP

"The Jabber community has long acknowledged the need for privacy and security features in a well-rounded instant messaging system. Unfortunately, finding a consensus solution to the problem of end-to-end encryption during the community's younger days was not easy. Eventually, early contributors created a quick solution using OpenPGP (RFC 4880 [1])."

@packetcat an awful lot of people just use Jabber anyway for this exact reason.

@packetcat Right? We don't call it SMTP we call it e-mail.

@packetcat ngl, when i started seeing “xmpp,” my brain filed it away as a synonym and kept on pronouncing it as “jabber”
