Some of you may already know that I’m operating an XMPP server. So far there are several domains running on that XMPP server and two domains are open for public registration. Namely these domains are hookipa.net and xmpp.social. You can find the service under the main domain on https://hookipa.net.
Interesting in this is, that for some time xmpp.social seemed to be the domain of choice for many users, maybe because of “xmpp” and “social” in the domain name – or because it is easier to name it than “hookipa” with “double-oh” and “kay”… who knows…
So, the user counts on xmpp.social were rising in a steeper curve than for hookipa.net, so much that I even considered to move over to xmpp.social for the main domain of that website.
But then something happened: the curated list of XMPP providers, which is now available under https://providers.xmpp.net. Since then some client software apps included the list, e.g. uwpx, and the user count was rising on hookipa.net – while it slowed down on xmpp.social.
