  Because Matrix has got to many inconsistencies and it’s too complicated for the average user. Sometimes e2e encryption breaks chat history, the official instance is slow and, most of all, there is NO native support for video calls and screen sharing. Element just uses Jitsi Meet In a chromium wrapper

    I belive the native support piece is recently out of date info: element.io/…/exploring-matrixrtc-real-time-commun…

    But that is more true of any newer system

      Right, but Matrix has been around for a while and yet its only use is to be a hub for tech-related projects and support rooms. How would you propose we somehow get people using it?

        Thats mostly a UX piece not a backend thing to me. Matrix RTC is a huge step to me, but discord is just voice channels for me.

        I want to check commets voice chats myself
