I used it yesterday, via Pidgin. I'm rokejulianlockhart@xmpp.jp. Why else would I have referenced it? Don't tell me what I've done. That's not a way to have productive conversations.

Regardless, I can't provide any more technical insight than that - I know solely that the clients provide so much more functionality that irrespective of the protocol, it's better in practice. Fedora, openSUSE, the Bundeswehr, NATO, and Beeper - all chose Matrix over XMPP, not least partially because of Element (which they also all chose).

Yeah, my experience with Element and a Matrix.org account is that it's sluggish. However, it's been better at Beeper, so I'm uncertain whether it's intrinsic to Matrix or merely Matrix.org and/or Element's servers.

I wish FreeDesktop would standardize CLIs taking their application colours from the user theme so that colourblindness is catered for.

Why is that preferable over Matrix?

The navigation bar disappearing and the mobile data connection needing manual re-enablement affects me too. I don't think anyone has posted about them on the forum yet, though.

If only CalyxOS supported the Google Play Store, I would use that.

It unfortunately depends much upon the community/person administrating the repository. If I'm worried about that, I tend to just make a post in /Discussion linking to my private fork.

That's reasonable, but why did that cause you to instruct me to call me random names? I don't see the context for that, nor the rationale. Anyway, what's the URI of the server?

Making draft PRs, even if they don't work yet, might be a good way of demonstrating that you're working on something. Or do you get too much useless feedback when you do?
