Hey, since usually asking questions here works quite well, I will try that again:
What makes a #matrix client something, that you would recommend to other people to try (even if you might not want to use it yourself). Or rather, what makes the client stable enough for day to day use for you. And what would make you recommend a client to someone as their first client to get started with #matrix?
I am aware, that everyone has different opinions there, so I am trying to gather everything. <3
@deepbluev7 in my opinion, the Element client behaves funny. Sometimes I get a black shield on a contact and it might be difficult to resolve. And it is also difficult to figure out why the black shield occurred in the first place.
In my opinion the features of Signal or WhatsApp makes them a bit more attractive, but I'm don't think I want a 1:1 feature match on Element.
@fredrikkarlsson Does Element not explain the 3 states for shields (on hover or so)? Usually a grey shield means the user is "trusted on a first use basis" aka, they never changed their signing key, but you also didn't verify them specifically.
And yes, the argument about having familar features I heard a few times now.
Thank you!
