Extend XMPP Authorization
XMPP servers have the ability to use backend authenticators that can share existing auth infrastructure. This is commonly used for LDAP integration at corporations, for instance. The jackal XMPP server, since it is in Go and this is /r/golang, appears to have some support for this although it appears you'd have to go learn GRPC, the docs basically assume you know what you're doing with that already.

Instant Messaging Service | Approach | Protocol | Libraries
How much traffic do you expect ? If you don't expect much traffic and you are happy with single server (or maybe a sharded cluster) you may be able to pull something off by yourself. Otherwise you should go with something already proved, like XMPP. Have a look at https://github.com/ortuman/jackal

Instant Messaging: XMPP or GO Socket
Raw sockets are just a "plain pipes" that can carry any logic, while XMPP is already well defined, long established protocol for instant messaging. Check it out: - XMPP Server - XMPP client lib

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix.

Setting Up for Java on Linux.
My personal favourite IDE for java is Intellej Idea. Apart from not demanding the extra extension, It was designed special for Java and Java related languages so it runs java smoothly with great compilation time. so lets install it. Make sure you have snap before installing it

Why is Linux so hard and anti GUI?
Linux Mints App Store is full of GUI programs, Snap Store ist full of it, Flathub is full of it.

This might seem dumb but where tf does snap put the actual files and stuff?
You are being lazy. But I recommend bringing your ass directly to snapcraft.io and reading those documents in the Learn section!!

Besides, there may be other ways to install them, although there doesn't seem no such Flatpak packages in Flathub. For example, some senerio to use some release channel or Docker / Podman. Additionally, when you use a different Linux distro where systemd is adopted and therefore can do Snaps (Snapd), you have another possibility.

Android Studio on Devuan 4: Install
Devuan GNU+Linux is a fork of Debian without systemd and hence Snaps (Snapd). Even on it, it's easy to install Android Studio and start to develop Android mobile apps.
