    is https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0055.html still used?

  2. wurstsalat

    I think Metronome supports it

  3. rion

    Psi too

  4. lovetox

    its a generic search XEP via dataform

  5. lovetox

    it can be used for many things

  6. lovetox

    right now i think some servers offer it to search through a user directory for example

  7. Kev

    Swift and M-Link both, too.

  8. pep.

    I haven't seen it used much in practice :/

  9. pep.

    0433 also considers it and says dataforms have limitations. https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0433.html#design

  10. Kev

    55's very useful if used within an organisation.

  11. Kev

    e.g. allowing search of local users for local users, but not allowing directory harvesting from remote users.

  12. MattJ

    Yeah, I know some closed deployments that use it in Prosody, but it would be silly on a public server
