What is Jabber? We introduce the handy chat tool

Online chats are as old as the Internet itself and the choice of suitable programs is hardly manageable. For this reason, Jabber was developed: A higher-level service designed to make chatting life easier.

All in one hand: with Jabber you can chat with users of other services.

In the essential point - chatting - all services work exactly the same. In the background, however, there are differences, and this is especially true for Jabber.

What is Jabber and how does the service work?

Jabber itself is a chat program, but in some respects it differs significantly from Skype, ICQ and Co.

• Jabber allows you to communicate with users of any other chat services.
• You yourself need one of the Jabber clients for your platform. In addition to Windows, macOS, Linux and other systems are also supported.
• The advantage is obvious: By using Jabber, you theoretically no longer need accounts with other services.
• The central point here is your Jabber ID. How to create an account, you learn here.
• You can be online with Jabber with multiple devices at the same time.
• Jabber is based on the open protocol XMPP and thus creates transparency.

Jabber thus wants to make your daily chats easier and clearer. In Zeiten, in denen die Flut an neuen Messengern nicht abreißt, ist dies für viele Nutzer eine praktische Option.
