many people already use it as their main messenger and i think by the end of the year it will be better than telegram or discord, it already is in some ways like big files and encrypted groups, performance is already better than matrix

they do continue to grow their team

rockdb is about to be deployed and will massively speed keet up

Cool. I have not figured out how to do simple things like just message one person, without creating a "room". They should integrate social account discovery, for example Nostr would be good, don't even need private key, just drop npub a find people you follow.

The experience of SIgnal (and even Telegram) is that if I have someone in contacts, I can message them instantly, I don't have to do anything special. That is a very useful thing to have if you want to have adoption.

I've heard many "by the end of the year" stories from many teams and most of them did not come true. It is easy to dream, much harder to actually do things. And other teams are working at the same time.

I hope that you are right and I am looking forward to every development, but I think bringing people over to something that does not work well is counter-productive. Build first, then bring people to something that works. Unless you are talking to super geeky early adopters (which I consider myself to be, that's why I use Keet)
