libswiften is a core library used for transport itself, not just backend. While I'm already started to minimize its usage (see #470) its near impossible to drop libswiften without dropping XMPP transport at all.

Hm, that doesn't sound good, as it's quite possible, that libswiften will be more and more dropped from distros in future.

I always thought, that could be replaced by the purple backend?

libswiften was not in "distros" since libswiften2, it was in maintenance mode for decade already.
I'm not sure you are fully understand what frontend and backend means in Spectrum context.
You are using it as XMPP transport? That part which communicates with your XMPP server is libswiften.
You can replace it with another XMPP library but it is a full rewrite of Spectrum "frontend" code. Nobody will do that because XMPP is dead itself.
The only correct way to remove libswiften dependency is writing new frontend, say ActivityPub frontend, to transport message from other networks on your Mastodon account, and drop XMPP frontend making XMPP fans cry.
