@drequivalent no. please no. Let's go further - VoIP over fediverse, but that would mean we have to make UDP over fediverse, and while we at it, let's make OpenArena over fediverse or something. And hey! Everything's better over fediverse! Torrents over fediverse, email over fediverse, TV over fediverse!

Point is: i'm strongly for decentralized and distributed services, just don't cram it all in one product. There's already XMPP/Matrix (and also Tox and Ring), no need to make YET ANOTHER chat service, and half-assed one too.
