Matrix offers all that, and bots and public channels
- atemerev 4y agoMatrix is good, too. It is not polished enough yet, and they need to work on content discovery, but otherwise I like them, too.
- deepstack 4y agoI think when people compare Matrix/Element a bit differently than all others. It is federated chat client (like email), that along is something worth considering for people who wants to keep their message and communication channel open. All the other chat program, such as What's App, Signal, Wire all belong in the same universe much like AOL back then. Signal actually discourage others from running their own servers. Matrix allows us to have our own domain and address, which is forever ours. If we don't like the provider that is running our server, we can just start our own (just like email). For that along I would rather support a version of Element.io/Matrix.org than another other programs.
