pondering my uninstalling discord
Happy to have folks on e2ee matrix. It supports calling directly and group voice and video chat rooms quite well IMO. :-)
God, I just wish they’d add a fucking Push to Talk option to a client… Any client 😅
Does it even have push to mute with a keybind? It feels like their voice/video chat is super feature bare lol
It doesn’t.
It has features for video/voice calling - E.g. Background blurring and stuff like that. It just lacks the stuff that would make it usable for gaming.
Lol that's an absolutely fair request. Have you asked on Element github? Sounds like a Mich needed feature.
The issue has been there for ages. Sadly gamers aren’t really Element’s target audience.
Makes more sense to wait for MatrixRTC to enter the spec cleanly, then wait for a custom Discord-like client to implement it.
Thanks for the suggestion; I’ll download right away. =D
Let us know your thoughts! I've been using it for years. Definitely some jank, definitely not for everyone, but again it's been pretty good for me. And if you really want you can run your own server.
