I’ve been trying to use Matrix to replace sites like Discord or Slack. But it seems that if a user creates an invitation-only room in a server, then invited users who are registered on other servers get errors when trying to join. Not very useful error messages either: “Failed to join room”. (In my case, I tried creating accounts and rooms at nitro.chat and then at converser.eu, but friends registered at matrix.org don’t manage to join).
Quite a let-down. Anyone who’s facing the same problem and has maybe managed to solve it?
Prose is an extremely good looking crosd platform XMPP client coming out very soon, I’m hoping that will help.
Currently XMPP is my preferred federated messaging platform, but to say the clients are bad would be an understatement
Does it support threads? That’s the feature that is usually missing in XMPP clients
I’m not sure, it might be on their website. I hope so.
Yes it does support but best on desktop. On android only pretty much “legacy” and not anymore worked on element which has performance issues
Looks very promising! thank you for sharing. Seems worth trying and supporting.
