- DANmode 8mo agoProductivity software and offerings in general should probably “come late to the party” and offer the most polished version of what everyone else is doing.
- notepad0x90 8mo agoYeah, but the originals they're copying from are also working hard to polish their own products, and they have more experience with user feedback regarding those features. For example: What if matrix could be used like email! now that would make it stand out won't it? i.e.: DANmode@danssite.net , you could post your matrix address like that, and matrix clients could resolve it using SRV records for matrix, and querying the correct homeserver designated on danssite.net. It could be marketed as an email replacement. You could ask sites to support it for registrations instead of email. Or.. what if it supported custom gif reactions, record yourself doing something, save it as a custom emoji, and you can use it in any chat. That's what I mean, lots of good ideas to pull from that makes it so that "use matrix because <it can do this better>" , instead of because it's more private or secure, or whatever.
