XMPP had the issue that it did not supported Video and file-sharing as we know it today. They created more XEPs to address it but the client mess made it impossible for people to really use it.
This has changed but in the meantime people switched.
Video, voice , files - all e2e ecrypted now on conversations (xmpp) using OMEO
Works well
Not every client supports OMEO and none of those clients got an independent audit.
