    Am also gonna stick with signal, eyeing up matrix. But what issues? The only reason i haven’t tested it out yet is none of my friends seem too keen on trying it.

      I use it with many friends and it is super buggy. Calls work only ok on browser version of Element, bugs in encryption are common where you cannot read a message, Synapse server is bloating the database and not clean after itself, etc.

      It’s getting better month by month, but still can’t recommend for your friends that are not technical people into open source. Better wait to not discourage them now.
