Criteria
Criteria should be independently verifiable. For example stats (compliancy, up time, TLS) should be generated with open source tools and the results should be linked from the list. Things like Privacy policy should be linked from the list as well.
- Passes the Conversations Compliance Test
- Provides IBR (redirect to website is OK)

- Grade A (no self signed certificate, no insecure TLS settings) on xmpp.net
- Provides a privacy policy (link)

- Has a bus factor > 1
- No extremely restrictive anti spam policies like allowing only messages from people in your contact list
