Ejabberd is batteries included down to offering stun/turn for audio/video calls, Erlang is just unrivaled when it comes to hot reloading so updates are effectively zero-downtime (unsurprising considering all the business critical environments it’s deployed).

I highly recommend everyone to give it a shot, especially to all the matrix refugees to whom it was a surprise/disappointment.
