This is a good point, and the Wavelength team is well aware of this.

I will admit I’d not heard of Matrix until your mention of it here. So I spent a few minutes downloading it, signing up, etc. It’s obviously competitive with Wavelength to some extent, but the first-class threading concept isn’t there. It seems more like a modern IRC or Slack alternative. Glad to be made aware of it though — thanks.
- wahnfrieden 4y agoMatrix is more interesting as a protocol than it is in terms of its current clients
- augment001 4y agoIf true, this means that it’s not actually a relevant competitor for end users yet.
- dexterdog 4y agoAs somebody who has followed your blog via rss for longer than I can remember I am very surprised that you were not aware of matrix even before your involvement with Wavelength and shocked that you did not become aware of it during your early involvement. Don't you guys have a list of competitors/alternatives that you keep track of? That being said I like what I see of Wavelength so far. I don't have anybody in my network that popped up right away, but I have a few people who are always interested in trying new chat apps so we'll give it a whirl.
