Comment on Give your Matrix account a Discord UI with Commet

  On Discord, I open the app, go to a server, and can see all the rooms and all the messages almost instantly.

  On Element (at least on Android), chats from different communities intermingle with my groups.

  are you using the spaces feature in element? that’s the same thing as discord “servers”. they are on the left, unless you have none yet. the default setting in element is a bit silly, you should turn off showing rooms from all spaces when a space is not opened, it’ll be much better.

  on phone the space list is at the bottom.

  I tapped on a large and slow-moving group, and watched messages slowly lurch into view as most of the messages were “join” and “leave” ones.

  which app are you using? element X, or the old, plain element? the old app is slow, the new one should work much better in that regard.

  you can also disable showing name change and membership change events if you don’t care, but membership is good to be aware of and shouldn’t be a problem with element x
