People did/do use XMPP as a protocol. They just used it re-branded as something else. The answer to this question is the same for all technology. Mainly that most people are happy to consume warmed over garbage and beg for more. They're lazy, stupid and do not care anything about quality.

For what it's worth the same is true of IRC. Most popular multiplayer chat programs are simply IRC renamed with some simple add-ons and a web interface.

XMPP fell out of favor when voice/video chat became more widespread. But it's likely the text portion of those chat programs are still XMPP or IRC on the back end.

Basically, anything that requires you or random person to set-up a server is not normal-friendly. They will freak out about such things "leaking their IP address" but will happily use the same chat software if a corporation is hosting the server. Same reason they fear p2p stuff.

I think Zuckerberg said it best. They're "dumb fucks".

It is very funny the open source community has fragmented into many chat protocols like the early 2000s proprietary ones. I guess Matrix's trying to fix that

That's a weird road at 45:17. Two lanes feeding into one lane that is wider than usual, but still not wide enough for two cars. Seems like a planning error there, but they don't seem to be going very fast so it's probably fine.

To be fair to the PRC, visitors of most places won't see any rough/bad parts because there's nothing for visitors there, and are mostly residental (this is excluding rural areas, which can get really bad, even the touristy stuff there gets horribly sad). The worst you'll see is some unhappy people in certain cities and binge drinkers in northern China.
There's a lot you can say about those commies and living under them but they make it an alright place to visit.

They opened up a few stores in my area dedicated to making Mocchi Donuts and have all these weird flavors for it. It wasn't that great in my opinion, it just tasted like a deep fried dough fritter glazed in sugar.

Or they're based around sport, which again interest depends on demographics generally but not as much so.

 No.2147

i guess sport does replace traditional festivals. We're like the old age romans watching people beat one another up and then partying

 No.2148

They probably do like >>2144 says.

But also we are probably under the impression that many Japanese festivals are much more widespread when they are not, they are still just local events that any nation holds.

I think you also ignore the large religious festivals like Eastern and Christmas and the National holidays and whatever Thanksgiving day is.

 No.2149

Interestingly Canada and America have unrelated holidays called Thanksgiving.

My hometown dedicates an entire week to festivals. Sadly, it's probably going to stop soon. 2020 they didn't have anything and 2021 there was great debate on doing it but they still did although the turn out was very low. We used to have two separate weeks in the year for festivals but we haven't seen anything happen during the earlier time of the year since around 2012 as the town dedicided to not host them anymore yet raising city taxes claiming it's for festivities when they've been cutting and gutting more each year. Quite sad.

Yes but two of those aren't Germanic, Dragons are but they are in other places as well and I a not sure if Germanic dragons have wings or not and I don't see why that makes Germanic mythology dead. Though yes it is dead and has been dead for some time, I would not really count Asatru as a living continuation either.

Picked a lock to a door just off to the side of my apartment. Cat always wanted to know what was behind it and so do I.
Think it's never been opened in years because it makes a huge squeal sound when I tried to open it. Will have to find a good time of night to open it up when everyone is lying in bed. Like 3 hours from now I think.
