    If you are only using it for text chat (not voice/video), it’s easy to bridge into Matrix.

    If you do need voice/video, then you’re stuck.

      Snikket is an all-in-one XMPP server-client that supports calls.

      But yes, in its current state, Matrix calls are pretty broken as there is no feature parity between Element Classic and Element X apps.

    Yeah ever since channels were added I am using that tab much lesser. And oh nobody texts me anymore either.
