thats google safety net which only allows apps that use that check to be installed on google verified OS’s which graphene cant become

you can do a puppet bridge for your discord account so it bridges all the guilds your in to matrix without needing discord guild admins to add the bridge to it

did you host your own matrix homeserver or use matrix.org? that can change how fast it feels massively and yeah built in moderation tools are pretty much nonexistant https://github.com/the-draupnir-project/Draupnir is the only moderation bot that you can run to ban users from all rooms at once if they break your rules and lets you subscribe to banlists so if a user spams in other rooms that have write access and gets added they’ll be banned from your rooms as well

cinny.in is much closer to discord then element

isnt signal a nonprofit? not a corporation

From what I saw it was quite left leaning when I used it

There’s a beta you can try using a test branch app on their staging servers, you’ll need to make a new account with your number again and there has been issues where its leaked your number

I’ll be very shocked if Ragnarok doesnt come to PC eventually

not all games on steam use the DRM

Everyone doesn’t use the main HS sure it is alot of people but alot also don’t use it

Some bridges support encryption and even if they don’t there’s a tool to make it so they do pantalaimon

Slowly but surely playing through xenoblade chronicles 3 and X4 with the interworlds mod

Framework probably

They only recently made it quantum resistant, so I don’t think that whatsapp is using that version

try conduit if you want a HS thats alot more optimized and runs well without a ton of resources

Theres valid reasons to not like discord or not being FOSS isn’t one of them personally

Discord has decent UX and the voice channels are great and easy to use, it’s far from garbage, just because it isn’t open source and technically matrix is mainly made/maintained by one company who made it at the same time, they don’t own it and there’s a separate entity the matrix foundation which is non profit which owns the actual spec and all that stuff but the majority of stuff done in the spec was by element/new vector

Did you try with your own self hosted server or something being hosted by someone else/a company?

You can kinda have that with spaces, I don’t see any reason why clients couldn’t sort them like discord does, would probably need something added to the spec so they can be sorted a certain way if users wanted to

You mean bridging other platforms?
