Hello,

As an open standards organization I think the  XSF should sign https://keepandroidopen.org/open-letter/

There are many reasons but the most obvious is that Android is the most popular operating system in the world (wikipedia says). If you want XMPP adoption by users self hosting, or companies, or govts, they'll all need clients to run on android, and google has a long track record of blocking them. eg https://blog.jmp.chat/b/2026-google-wants-to-control-your-device it's also happened to Conversations and I believe Snikket.

Guus asked that I email here to guage support so please reply to let the board know. If you are like me and despise email drop your support in xmpp:xsf@muc.xmpp.org?join and I'll forward it here for you.

Thanks,
