• Manjaro Phosh has Chatty. It supports message archive managment (MAM), message carbons etc and is good for private conversations. Drawbacks - no multi user chat (MUC) and it pulls in quite much Gnome packages as dependencies. As in Phosh it is used also as a SMS client, it could interfere with Plasma Spacebar app.
  
• SailfishOS also integrates SMS app with xmpp one using telepathy-gabble. There is telepathy-gabble-plus update (http://devel.kondorgulasch.de/telepathy-gabble/) which extends it with MAM etc. Maybe a similar method could be possible to add xmpp to the Spacebar app? However - still no MUC
  
• Gajim. Probably the best jabber client for Linux (with Dino). Sort of usable in Plasma mobile if the window sizes and other options are optimized in conf file. Roster and personal chats are scaled ok and keyboard integrates quite ok also. Needs double-tap to open chats in roster. MUC windows are not scaled correctly and keyboard hides the input field.
  
• Dino. Probably the best jabber client for Linux (with Gajim). However, the current Dino for Manjaro&Plasma is the desktop one and although it starts and runs, it does not scale correctly and I was unable to input text as the keyboard did not pop up. However - there is a project to use libhandy for Dino to adapt it to mobile screens (https://github.com/dino/dino/issues/178) and the result is already promising (https://fosstodon.org/@linmob/105583488991640393). Any chance to get this branch into Manjaro&Plasma?
