Hi,
Strong +1 on this. The current situation is far from good. Currently to
have a good communication application I need to either use a proprietary
platform, use a platform who doesn't support images and for which I need
to set up a bouncer on my server or use a platform which lags a lot and

Doesn't Riot.im support images well enough for your use-case? It's free
software, and it's becoming fairly mature lately.
The root issue for both Telegram and Matrix seems to be that they're
bridging through a legacy platform like IRC. Would it be fair to say
that this problem will slowly reso

Hi all,
couple of inputs from my side, with both a KDE and a freenode hat on:
First of all, I do agree that the situation is not great and could be
improved. However, I doubt that "switching to a single product" / "abandon
bridging" would really improve the situation. Projects that went that
The problem with Matrix in KDE is that I'm not even sure someone is actively

I know the KDE sysadmins are not maintaining it and instead, in case of

multiple times about why my matrix ac

Hi,
First off, let me say that I personally have been increasingly satisfied
with Matrix and am of the opinion that once an alternative homeserver
implementation (Dendrite or conduit.rs come to mind, both of them have
top-notch performance) is ready for production, it will be the optimal

The incompatibility in capabilities between IRC, Matrix, and Telegram
feels like it makes smooth communication between all three all but
impossible. Maybe I'm wrong about this--hopefully I am! Because I think
that if we're going to stay with Matrix, we need to somehow improve the

I've seen it used in a few circles. However if I had to suggest something,
definitely Mattermost. I've used it when I worked with the EFF and for a
minute, I thought it was something like Slack. It is but on steroids. It is
written in Go and React but the likes of Uber also use it.
