I've been using Matrix (and element as a client) for a little while now for personal and business stuff - I even wrote some fun little bot to shitpost random memes on my behalf.
Anyone else using matrix actively for professional stuff? Any thing I may find later on that is a show stopper?
- AndroidKitKat 3y agoI believe parts of the French government are using Matrix for their communications [1]. I've been wanting to use Matrix more and more over IRC, but I've never really liked any of the Matrix clients. I think I'm just too stuck in my ways about my favorite IRC clients.

- boredumb 3y agoI have spent years using discord, slack and teams now so the migration to element as a client was definitely a welcome change. I like the idea of not having my companys historical communication tied directly to a single vendor and being able to host my own local server (and have options of which). Not surprised governments are taking a look at it, the encryption and usability seem like a good fit and don't require them to rely on google/microsoft/salesforce for chatting.
- doublepg23 3y agoI’ve just generally found the polish in Element lacking - which seems strange to me. I was under the impression a benefit of Electron was you get very nice building blocks with edge cases taken care of.
