People were gaslighting me for quite some time about my issues with Matrix.

"It's always just you having issues."

"You're just sad because XMPP didn't make the cut."

"Python and nodejs isn't that bad."

"Yeah, they're building stuff for NATO but someone has to pay the bills, right."

I had no idea Matrix was mostly funded by Israel.

Didn't do my due diligence.

Stop using Matrix. Everything about Matrix reeks of intelligence cointelpro-style sabotage or just blatant incompetence.

Still remember all their vaporware promises at FOSDEM 2024 on how they'd fix all the blatant Matrix issues "soon".

> Who uses Element?

Customers include NATO ACT (using NI2CE Messenger, an Element fork), United Nations, US Department of Defence, the French government (Tchap, an Element fork) and Germany's Armed Forces (BwMessenger, an Element fork).

Yeah. Just fuck off. If this isn't an intelligence operation I don't know what is.
