This app looks nice, but Element has improved quite a bit recently, and the others clients have improved as well
Yeah, I use Element daily and I'm pretty happy with it. I have far more problems these days with Discord than with Element/Matrix.
Yeah, unintentional bugs are much easier to deal with than maliciousness, like replacing the "file upload" button with buy nitro, or discord in the browser's audio being finnicky (dark pattern you don't get this problem on element or the discord app.)
Of course, there are unintentional bugs as well, on top of maliciousness.
Lmao. I'm guessing this is because they've begun to use LLM's for moderation (maybe trying to replace real humans?), but LLM's can't really count.
Yes. I noticed my Discord problems uptick sharply when I uninstalled the creepy invasive desktop app and started only using it in the browser. Element just sometimes fails to upload a file or something, but it's pretty stable for me lately.
