Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: How did Google botch messaging/video/hangouts so badly?
There are at least hundreds of implementations of XMPP that are interoperable (at 5-6 actively developed server implementations, many more libraries and many client applications). There are at least hundreds of thousands deployed XMPP services.
In addition XMPP can be linked with other protocols/networks via bridges/gateways. Some examples:
- Spectrum: XMPP gateway project based on libpurple (support for many protocols): https://spectrum.im/
- WhatsApp bridge: https://git.eta.st/eta/whatsxmpp
- Telegram bridge: https://github.com/codingteam/emulsion
- Signal bridge: https://gitlab.com/nicocool84/slidge/ (replacement of https://gitlab.com/nicocool84/spectrum2_signald/ )
Given such a diverse ecosystem of open-source and proprietary implementations, I'd say XMPP is one of the best examples of widespread protocol interoperability that there is.

Element One – All of Matrix, WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram in One Place
I want this to take off. I'm tired of having to follow trends: IRC to ICQ to MSN to Skype to Google Talk to Facebook Messenger to Whatsapp to Signal.
Pidgin is good (I also miss the ancient Trillian, even though it was closed source), but limited to a local device.
There are XMPP Transports as well for these (see https://git.eta.st/eta/whatsxmpp , https://gitlab.com/nicocool84/spectrum2_signald , but sadly https://spectrum.im/ is surprisingly finicky to set up.)
