It depends. If they choose something open like Matrix or XMPP, it could work well in the long-term.


The blog post says "We are evaluating products, not protocols".

There are no XMPP frontends that can compete with the "shininess" of the modern, proprietary systems like Slack so that's out already.

As for Matrix/Riot ... maybe, but I don't think it's likely that they'll go with that.


I hope they're willing to consider https://www.modular.im/ then, which would be based off Matrix


I like how they came right out and rejected open systems out of hand, hats off mozilla.
