What if you could have chat, video conferencing, blogging, and social communities all in one place without giving up your data to a centralized platform? Movim is a web-based application that brings the full power of XMPP to end users, combining instant messaging, group chats, video calls, and a complete publishing platform into a unified experience.

In this talk, I'll present how Movim leverages the XMPP standard and its extensions (Pubsub, MUC, Jingle) to deliver features users expect from modern social platforms while remaining fully federated, interoperable with other XMPP clients like Conversations and Dino, and capable of bridging to centralized platforms like Discord, Telegram, and WhatsApp!

I'll discuss the technical challenges of building a rich web frontend on top of XMPP, showcase the exciting features recently added to the project, and introduce the upcoming planned ones.

Whether you're an XMPP enthusiast or curious about decentralized alternatives to mainstream social media, come discover how Movim is bridging the gap between protocol power and user experience.
