For me it's about federation. I have my own server and chat with my family there. And I also have friends with accounts elsewhere and I can message them as well.

And I'm looking forward to integrations (Slack, Signal, ...) being more user-friendly, and easier to install, configure and maintain, so I can message others, too.

XMPP is federated and has some integrations (among them, SMS/MMS and phone call support).
