What are recommended apps for Matrix on Android?
I'm considering using it, but I don't know much about Matrix clients.
There's:
For now I stick with Element. It's just seems to be the most feature-rich of them.
I recommend fluffychat to most people because it's simple and straightforward. I use Element because it's fully featured and a bit more complex. So choose your poison
I would also recommend fluffy chat to people because in addition to that it's also one of the only ones to support multiple accounts, an important feature for element because simply switching back and forth between accounts isn't feasible on a service with end-to-end encryption where you have to maintain a single login else lose your keys and prior encrypted messaging history.
I use the chat that is available in Thunderbird, my email client. It can connect to various types of chat (I dont remember them all) like Matrix.

Element is decent. Started playing around with Fluffy which also seems good.
I've personally been using Element and love it. I have a private matrix server for my family to use. Some of the members of the family have also loved FluffyChat.
i like cinny because it's the most discord like
Since it's been mentioned here but nobody's said anything else about it yet, Beeper is nice because it connects a bunch of different apps and everything syncs instantly between PC and mobile. I personally use it for Matrix, a couple of Discord servers, Messenger (for those friends who won't leave) and SMS.
Can you view all channels in a Discord server, just like you're using Discord?
Only text channels I believe. There's a sidebar sort of like the one in the actual Discord app that shows your inbox, SMS, Messenger, etc. Discord servers show up in there, then when you select one it shows you the list of channels as though they're regular conversations. You can set whether or not they show up in your inbox and/or notify you individually for each channel, and the ones you don't want you just set to low priority and they'll be hidden. It's not a perfect replacement, but if you don't need voice/streaming it works fine.
