>XMPP foundation promotes it as an IoT communication protocol, like MQTT

Which means that it will never work for human messaging, due to all the IoT cruft.

>Thanks to Daniel, the author of this post, we now have communication profiles which the IM-oriented servers and clients follow.

LOL, he only implemented p2p transfers when it bit himself in the tail on a plane flight.

Conversations is the best of them all, but it doesn't mean that it is good.

I use XMPP almost exclusively for the last 10 years and don't see any major issues, not with the protocol, not with the clients. Everything is pretty reliable and works fine.
