MODERATORS
Thanks for confirming.
XMPP really needs better clients - even the good ones feel dated. Hopefully the timeline was not pushed back too much, if at all, and that this redesign can be the start of modernizing XMPP clients.
Yeah, the XMPP client landscape is pretty bad. Mostly 10+ year old clients that did not have a refreshed UI ever since. The only one I really like and is modern is Dino on Linux. It's a very neat looking client that also happens to be responsive to it works on small screens and even Linux mobiles!
KDE’s Kaiden is modern and ready for Plasma Mobile. Gajim looks modern enough (tho not in small splits). TUIs never really go out of fashion for their crowds.
