This one is probably one of the most disappointing one; Matrix had everything I wanted in terms of chat features. Programmability-wise, all it was an encrypted JSON sender/receiver, but in a good way. It basically could be extended however you want since it provided a useful primitive. But the encryption just randomly fails, and it’s hard to figure out why, causing you to miss messages. I eventually gave up on building a side project for it.
Same here - the encryption issues killed my project too, the problem is that Matrix’s OLM/Megolm protocol implementation doesn’t handle device verification and key distribution robustly enugh across multiple clients.
Right. It’s not like other services have implemented it better though, or is there any? I don’t think we should punish them for trying to do it in a more usable way than with signal

i definitely encountered this in the past but element has constantly improved for my self hosted situation
