"iOS struggles with XMPP" Is that so? Monal just received the 5.1.0 update and Siskin is also under active development. Then there is Snikket based on Siskin. Compared to 2017 this is quite the vivid XMPP landscape and development on all three apps is ongoing and the people behind the apps seem capable. You can use a bridge to even use IRC in your XMPP client. Editing txt files in NextCloud and having this by in sync on your other computers is great. Sure, iOS lags in both regards but it is not Apples priority to offer such solutions. They want to shove iCloud down the users throat. Just wanted to mention the existing and viable solutions.

I still don't know what to recommend my friends on iOS for reliable OMEMO encryption and push notifications in group chats. Monal 5.1.0 was released yesterday so maybe it works now, but the state of XMPP on iOS is really not great.
