It's not clear whether this concerns Matrix-the-protocol or Element-the-client. The page itself seems to be about the client. Maybe this can be cleared up in the submission title.
I'm using an alternative client, but I see that that space is nowhere near keeping up with the features Element are pushing out. Mine doesn't even support spaces yet. I'd like to use a 'native' client (Linux/KDE person here), but there's not much choice (I never got the Neochat flatpak to work reliable for instance, on a variety of distros). So, one must basically go with the Element (web) client, which is not very light.
I have nothing but good words for the project btw, thanks and keep it up :)
- pixxel 4y agoFWIW I use FluffyChat (Flutter) on Manjaro Plasma KDE and iOS which runs nice and perky. Has Spaces etc. https://gitlab.com/famedly/fluffychat https://gitlab.com/famedly/fluffychat
- brnt 4y agoI can't figure out how to browse rooms in a Space using Fluffy. There appears to be no documentation. If you know how, I'd be much obliged :)
- half-kh-hacker 4y agoThis uses plain Matrix events to negotiate a Jitsi call: It's an Element feature.
- your_challenger 4y agoI use fluffychat and cinny. Yes, I might be missing out on newer features (threads, widgets, video rooms, etc). But at this stage I'm happy with what these clients offer.
- nyanpasu64 4y agoSurprisingly nheko seems to basically work, including spaces and encryption. I also heard Thunderbird 102 added fairly complete Matrix support, but it takes a little while to roll out to Linux distributions so I haven't tried it yet.
