waits for matrix fanboys to still chime in
My client shouldn't be bugged when I enter a room with a long history, right? Right?
Couldn't decrypt message
Hey, they're fixing that. Soon. Really. Any day now. For reals!
(That's the #1 thing that makes Matrix utterly unusable for me: if there's more than like, 10 messages, it's a game of is-it-broken-or-is-it-just-crap.)
Tbf, they actually are. Element X and the sliding sync are ready I think. If the server and client both use it, I think you can use it today. Or maybe the whole matrix 2.0 where that's all integrated isn't pushed into main/master yet. Im any case, I read it was ready maybe a few weeks ago.
Element X is still missing a lot of features, "ready" is an exaggeration I feel
No Spaces support in particular is a dealbreaker for me
I've found that Conduit handles it a lot better than Synapse does.
Matrix is the only discord clone I know about. Does it have massive problems?
Yes. Without a question of a doubt.
The lack of interest in it even amongst tech communities and bridges (they can link Matrix servers and Discord servers) constantly being down has kept me from giving Matrix a second chance.
I think it was a Linux gaming community last time that got flooded with hate content after the bridge went down and the Matrix side was left to itself.
