Like, saying to your mate down the pub "Oh you should get on Jabber" versus "You should get on ecks em pee pee"

One of these words sounds like a thing for talking about whatever with your mates, the other sounds like a thing for bollocking around with config files so you can talk to other people who bollock around with config files about bollocking around with config files

XMPP is pronounced 'ʤæb.əʳ
🙂🙂

To me,
#XMPP is the universal communication protocol, used for #IoT, #WebRTC, gaming, social, and #instantMessaging.
#Jabber is the latter in an open and federated network.
™" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer tag" data-mfm="hashtag">#CiscoJabber™ is a product by Cisco.
Zimpy is many things, but don't look it up in
#UrbanDictionary!

(Btw. I fiercely advocate naming
#freeSoftware projects, children, cats, companies, everything, after #UUIDs. No more unambiguousness, no more #trademark issues.)
