Unfortunately the server I use doesn't support sliding sync yet.
edit Also, how far is Element X? I just tried it out with a matrix.org account, and it still makes the pretty bad UX blunder of confusing private one-on-one chats with rooms. I don't doubt that they're rooms technically, but you really need to hide that fact from the user if you wish to reach Telegram's usability.
- Arathorn 3y agoEX is about 2 weeks old. It doesn’t yet have filters to split DMs from rooms, but it will.
- Arathorn 3y agoplus unless I’m missing something, telegram doesn’t seem to distinguish DMs from group chats in the room list either?
- darthrupert 3y agoNot graphically, but they don't call these things "rooms" nor "channels" anywhere. I feel that's just confusing for most people and unnecessary for those who would understand it. Perhaps I should make an issue out of this concern, but I'm a bit afraid that it won't matter: you guys would have done this by now if you thought about it like I do.
- Arathorn 3y agoNo, I totally agree that DMs should be called DMs in the UI, and Rooms should be called Rooms. Unfortunately, there's just a plain old blindspot here - i'll keep pointing out and we'll get it fixed.
