I personally think the UI for both XMPP and Matrix clients generally kind of suck, which isn't great for convincing non-techy people to use them.

Ding ding ding. Make a Discord/Slack clone that does screensharing and drag/drop file sharing and I won't care if it uses XMPP or Matrix

So Rocket.Chat (which TIL can federate to Matrix)?

Did they just add that? Last I heard it was on the roadmap

[–] neblem@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Looks like its available as opt-in, but as part of their premium / ee not FOSS build. Bummer.

I think there have been some attempts to do so, but they're just not good enough (and/or end up dead after a while).

People say discord and my God, to be that is one ugly ass program.
