If something killed XMPP for me - it was Matrix. On open source replacement that is not only more popular, but has more active development and it's easier to use. No big company required. And since XMPP is still alive for its niche user base and EU is probably the reason for Threads federation - I don't think this is the right hill to die on.
Also Matrix can bridge to XMPP, of course you wouldn't because nobody uses XMPP.
calyx institute keeps xmpp slightly alive for non xmpp mega fans
