  my brother in Christ, Discord and Teams both need like 2x the RAM so don’t talk to me about that. I don’t compare a hot-dog to a pile of dog poo and say “it’s good food”. Idk left side has contacts and groups, right side chat. What exactly is not user-friendly there? slow to load up long sync times high battery drain for mobile users room concept, as opposed to contact chats electron app sucks donkeyballs - wastes lots of screen space where no chat is displayed options way too hard to find at times (like how to add existing rooms to a space) no online/offline status of contacts trust model with device verification is unintuitive for non-techie users (admitted this one has improved with the emojis years ago and with cross-device certification) I could probably find a bunch of more reasons if I thought longer about it. These are all issues that don’t keep me from using the app, but they are severe enough that I can’t convince non-techie friends to use element as a messenger. For matrix, there are superior messengers for sure, albeit those are then limited in functionality.
