> Isn't xmpp old style instant messaging?

No.

XMPP is just as "modern" as Matrix, but has a _different _ data storage/distribution idea.

> „my question would be the reverse“. I have no idea why I’d use XMPP

> My question to you would be: what do you like about XMPP?

Same things & more:

- modern chat solution with features people have com to expect from WhatsApp

- many bridges that have kept me from having to use more than one chat client for multiple protocols (think pidgin)

- many great messengers have discovered XMPP as a great base for their system

- lots of great communities are on XMPP

- realistic participant counts in public chat rooms - no counting dead (former) members

- pretty good video & voice chat

- open source

- selfhosting possible

- fewer concerns about data protection and privacy

- more resource efficient (less memory required, lower CPU utilization)

And:

- The use is possible and allowed everywhere where e-mail is in use.

> ...assumes you know what Matrix is ...

Matrix is a chat protocol. It works like chatting over GIT (distributed databases) and is more like a team messenger like Mattermost or Zulip. Conduit is a server software and not for end users.

Matrix is like chatting via GIT (distributed databases) and tends to be a team messenger like Mattermost or Zulip - XMPP is structurally like email (but with options like online status, currently typing, last online, ...) and is often used by large messenger services (e.g. WhatsApp uses its own variant of XMPP).

XMPP is the only system that can and may(!) be used wherever email is in use.

XMPP is just as "modern" as Matrix, but has a _different _ data storage/distribution idea.

For people who are interested in alternatives to WhatsApp (like XMPP and Matrix) and need more than one good source for comparison.
