"And of course we work with standards [for Libervia], with XMPP notably. It's a communications standard which is ... mainly know for instant messaging but it can actually do a lot more. So we use it also for blogging ... for these kinds of things.

And I've been working on a gateway [other protocols], notably ActivityPub, the protocol behind Mastodon, PeerTube, Mobilizon, etc."

"Technology is not neutral" - Libervia

It is important to be able to communicate freely, says Jérôme Poisson a.k.a. Goffi. He is the main developer of Libervia, a communication ecosystem based on XMPP. XMPP is mostly associated with chat but Libervia offers many more features such as blogs, fora, calendars and file & photo sharing. It has gateways to other open protocols like ActivityPub and email. Jérôme identifies multiple problems in digital communications such as Big Tech monopolies and public debates taking place on proprietary platforms. Libervia can’t address all of these problems, because many of them are societal. But it does address some of them with a platform that is decentralized, based on Free Software and open standards. The project has strong ethics in its DNA, written down in a social contract. Erratum: The security audit for Libervia was done by NGI Zero partner Radically Open Security not by NLnet.
