    There’s a specific downside to LLM-based development that people can get neck deep in a new project without interfacing with the existing work in the field.

    In this case, this is basically a poorly specified implementation of half of XMPP. Of course, I half expect the LLM would have mentioned that at some point, but the repository does not.

      XMPP is massively bloated protocol that is badly managed for last 2 decades

        And what are you suggesting as a non-bloated and better managed alternative? :)

          Maybe Matrix?

            Synapse basically brought my vps to its knees with like 5 users. I would not call it light.
