@ochotona_princeps I will never run a Matrix server again. fuck that worthless protocol
@ochotona_princeps every single time I've used Matrix my accounts have ended up deleting themselves, last time I ran a server I lost all my data when I had to migrate it and had some random bug break the database. I don't consider Matrix to be functional software and the fact that it's existed for as long as it has (I started using it back in 2015 when it was still called Riot) while still being like alpha quality software that lacks basic features people have wanted for years is such a fucking embarrassment. I wouldn't use Matrix again even if I weren't running a server
@nyx @ochotona_princeps The fact that Matrix has been around for 10+ years and has received shitloads of funding but all their software is still clunky, slow, lacking in basic features, and generally awful while lacking anything even resembling a roadmap to remedy this situation says all you need to know about Matrix

@scathach @nyx @ochotona_princeps they went after government contracts. Every time a company goes after government contracts, their software turns to shit.
