Element had a lot of issue last time i've tested it: push notification issue, convulated ui, e2e encryption disabled by default, slow server.
I had my own server for a while for my SO and I and we often missed each other messages plus the client was draining my phone battery.
I love the briding capacity of matrix, I woulf like to spend an evening setting that up in order to aggregate all those messaging apps but I'm afraid it's not worth it.
And yes signal is far from perfect and moxie view on some key point such as centralization are not mine. Still it's solid software .
Yhea they're improving quite a lot, it's great to read. Do they encrypt metadata now?
I've missed that. It's great :)
Hope they solve it soon.
