I think Matrix is pretty great, I run all my comms through it too, with bridges (using the big Ansible playbook which is indeed not for everyone). It's not ideal (I'd love a more high-density view for the channel list in particular, the "xchat" view only makes the chats more high-density). But I'm certainly an outlier, most mainstream users would be happy with it as it is. The one thing that could be improved IMO is the encryption process which is clumsy. Many times I log in a new client and it keeps prompting me to add it even though I've already entered the backup key. The process of granting one client through another has never worked for me.

> IMO is the encryption process which is clumsy I completely agree. Even though it reduces security/privacy, the fact that Signal doesn't make the user think about having to deal with managing keys I think is a very user-friendly feature. iMessage does this as well for its encryption. > The process of granting one client through another has never worked for me I pretty much only use my security key when logging into a new client, because I have also found that process can be unreliable.
