much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I just installed it after I ran into it on some other Lemmy comment. I was hoping to replace discord with it.
It just feels like it isn't "there" just yet? Unless I'm missing something?
If I showed it to friends of mine today and they had my experience I'm sure they'd go back to discord.
Not hating on the devs though. The product itself seems to be coming along nicely.
If it helps, I'm pretty sure the devs are in the process of rewriting the UI on a private repo. Idk if there's any eta or progress chart
Writing code in private and then throwing it over the wall to the public is usually a pretty huge red flag with projects that are already public.
It is just as centralized and has a tendency to ban people for poor reasons
It's way better than Matrix
No E2EE for DMs, groups, or notes.
That's going to be the deal breaker for most.
Matrix is far too slow for what it's intended to be. I'd certainly like to see E2EE come to Revolt.
