I wonder, when people complain about #XMPP having so many XEPs and clients not supporting all of them, are they aware that the web is the same way? There are so many features and web browsers don't always support the same subset but webdevs deal with it just fine without thinking that will kill the web.
Plus, Googlers said on the XMPP mailing lists that they shut down federation because of spam, because we all know Google doesn't know how to manage spam in a federated network... (hrm email)

isn't this because there are only three web engines people actually use with one of them having at least an 80% market share?
