On the side bar it lists the following:
- [Matrix/Element]Dead
- Discord
“Discord” is an active link, but the Matrix link is completely inactive. Not only is it inactive (which could have be excused as a broken link), but it is also manually labeled as “Dead”, as if there is no intention of making it work. How can a community that is focused on privacy willingly favor a service that is privacy non-respecting when a perfectly functional privacy-respecting alternative exists?
Well maybe not that unstable if I’m honest. But super, SUPER slow to sync up for sure. As for bloated, I suggest you check its memory usage: it’s quite obscene for what is essentially just a chat client.
You sound like you haven’t used matrix in a while. I use it daily. It isn’t super slow to sync.
