Genuinely clueless, is XMPP relevant anymore? I consider myself reasonably technical, and when it comes to chat, here's what comes to mind:
If I was to use Gajim, who would I talk to? e.g any communities or projects
The only thing that makes matrix more relevant than XMPP is that matrix has the element client and that matrix has a lot of momentum. But XMPP is a pretty great protocol that just needs better clients, branding and community stuff.
Here is a video displaying the upcoming discord/slack-like UI for Gajim 1.4

But yeah, matrix/element is the most relevant thing right now.
(IRC is completely dead as a viable option for most people I think, only hardcore people use it)
