In practice, who do you know that’s using it and doesn’t run Arch, by the way?

Well I mostly run Debian, but I do have arch on a machine so maybe I don’t count.

It’s that they’re not designed for non-technical users.

Have to agree there, it takes some effort if you’re setting it up for friends and family.

Xmpp supports group chat, 1:1 messaging, you’ve got webtrc support for voice/video, and its extensible.

Jingle even has screen sharing (and I think a WIP remote control function).

What is missing from xmpp?
