Protocols

Could at least one table, preferably the first, have a column for supported protocols for each client? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.208.233.139 (talk) 08:32, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Monitisation and funding

Would it be possible to have a table comparing the principal monitisation strategy and the major funding source, behind each service? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elcaba (talk • contribs) 14:00, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion: No. That is info that belongs on the page of the packages itself. The Banner talk 15:59, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Snikket

I've found references to snikket here: https://neilzone.co.uk/2023/07/snikket-a-self-contained-xmpp-distribution/ with the official site here: https://snikket.org/

Does it deserve a page and/or belong in the list?

The standard advice is to write the article first. The Banner talk 13:15, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
