How likely do we think this is to be the interop format that the big name messaging apps use to support that EU regulation to allow cross app messaging?
I personally think it's likely. Facebook is one of the companies that will be targeted by EU's DMA and since they co-authored this standard, it seems likely they'd want to use it to respect the DMA. If Facebook uses it, others will adopt it because of their sheer control over messaging services.
