If we want to keep the Jabber going, could we not set up our own Jabber server? perhaps tied to the datatracker or something
more ephemeral ?
( I've lost more than a few jabber accounts in my days, and I did use Hangouts until the googles switched to mutant XMPP.)
(Meetecho is very useful also, just saying).

Exactly; you can use MeetEcho to be "on Jabber".

Same, though not so much scribing as professionals such as you :)
