Element is probably the single most buggy piece of software that I voluntarily use on a daily basis. What's the best alternative? (for desktop linux)

@retr0id if you're okay with flutter and using flathub or snap you should try fluffychat. It's much better on the design department, supports e2e, but it's still chromium dependent.

@retr0id I really like Cinny. They have a webapp at https://cinny.in and a desktop app at https://github.com/cinnyapp/cinny-desktop.

@retr0id I feel the same about Element, also it has so many UI/UX issue it’s very annoying to use. My personal favourite client is cinny https://cinny.in/ They are also on the fediverse :)
