What XMPP clients are good to pair with Dino when chatting with people on other platforms?

I've heard Conversations is good on Android but I'd love to hear about interop with iOS, Web, and Windows/Mac clients if anyone cares to share anecdotes

There is an unofficial windows port over at https://github.com/LAGonauta/dino/tree/master-windows-change... which works quite well for me
cheogram is my current favorite fork/upgrade of conversations. it works really well with jmp.chat for an xmpp phone number and to text your friends via that phone number from xmpp. I personally like gajim better than dino, but dino 0.4 hasn't made it to my flavor of arch yet so I am waiting to find out if it's worth switching on the desktop or not. interoperability isn't a problem as long as your clients all support the xeps the others are choosing to use (this should be true of most full fledged clients).
