Was it Facebook that killed xmpp or Google? Legitimately asking because I've always seen that blamed on Google.

It was Google, they Embraced, Extended, and Extinguished it with Google Chat. Then they killed that themselves.

google does seem to be the main culprit, but facebook still played a role as far as i'm aware. these two companies also colluded a lot so i wouldn't trust either of them with anything federated
