Why does Lemmy promote Matrix but not XMPP? (random-hero.com)

I mean both of those protocols serve similiar purpose, both are federated and both considered secure. So why can't I have an XMPP address in my profile instead of Matrix? Or are there any reasons why Matrix "works" better with lemmy?

@thepaperpilot @pinkolik XMPP is the internet standard, Matrix is not a standard, just a product by some startup. Why their product is not compatible with the existing standard is anyone's guess.

Yeah, that's fair. Although I like that matrix already has stickers, custom emojis, threads, e2ee, etc.
