Do you prefer XMPP or Matrix powered apps as a discord alternative?

I am, mainly due to the Discord situation which has resulted in much more interest in alternative platforms. After everything dies down and everyone is settled in their new platform, I'll likely be posting about it a bit less.
I am mentioning its drawbacks; it does not have two very important Discord features as of now, which I explicitly point out. I also pointed out that screen sharing audio only works with Chromium browsers, which is another downside (I only use Firefox myself).
You yourself said that the issues I had were only fixed a few months ago. I had been using it in the period you mention the problem existing in, but stopped using it due to those issues. I think it's a little unreasonable to expect me to regularly re-try every other platform before relating my past experiences with it (a few months is not that long ago). I'm glad to hear that problem has been finally resolved for them. As it's not relevant anymore, I won't mention it when relaying my experience with it in the future.
No, I said I haven't seen a single one of those errors in more than a few months. I haven't been tracking the timeline, but I'm pretty sure the fixes were being put in place closer to a year ago.
When we choose to publish old experiences instead of gathering updated information first, it's important to also state when those experiences were, so readers can take it into account. Things are constantly changing in this field. (Mostly for the better, I think.)
In any case, thanks for clarifying, and thanks in advance for adjusting your spiel now that you've been made aware that your information was out of date.
