I should love Matrix. It is a decentralised, privacy preserving, multi-platform chat tool. Goodbye Slack and your ridiculous free limits. Adiós Discord and your weird gamification. Suck it IRC with your obscure syntax and faint stench of BO. WhatsApp and Telegram can stick their heads in a bucket of lukewarm sick and sing sea shanties! Let's join the future! The problem is - Matrix is shit. Not …

    Yes you’re missing a lot. SimpleX even has a directory bot to find public group chats.

      Is ðis right? In a group wiþ 6k members, each message posted to ðe group is 20MB of traffic? I suppose ðis is a consequence of ðe E2E design - a message posted sends a message to 6,000 people, individually encrypted and delivered?

      Screen shot of a group wiþ 6k+ members, warning ðat each message causes a 20MB payload

      Do you happen to know ðe plan for addressing ðat? It seems like a fairly large impediment, and I can’t imagine what a solution would look like ðat preserves E2E.
