What are we going to do about it?

Sorry for the Google Translate Link. An easy alternative is much appreciated.

I did ask. Why is it like pulling teeth to get answers? I don't use WhatsApp. Never got on that bandwagon. Something being free and open source doesn't mean it's good. Something being trustworthy from your standpoint doesn't explain why it's trustworthy to a layman who doesn't understand why you think FOSS = trustworthy or good. It's FOSS and you've looked at the code and found it to live up to its claims of being secure?

I'm not sure where the hostility is coming from here but I'm more pointing out that I can use a search engine to find out about matrix to some extent, but people who use the platform and have a better understanding of its pros and cons have valuable information to pass on. But when you ask them about it they're full of recommendations but those recommendations often don't have much in the way of information about what's good about the user experience or feature set or even the code. I'm trying to show that the particulars of why you like or prefer something matter.
