   @get @anemone @mischievoustomato To be precise, it was initially developed by an Israeli company before being transitioned to a (suspiciously well-funded) non-profit. Additionally, joining shit often requires going through some dumb matrix.to link in my experience and the protocol had some metadata leak problems especially with it all going to matrix.org's servers. @sapphire actually blackholed that domain on his Matrix for that reason IIRC.

   Apparently strictness of the blocking depends on the provider.
   matrix.org is not in the official blocklist. Chances are my friends use VPN though, I never asked.

   I've seen recent posts of grumb on how schizo.cafe's database fucknig exploded during normal Synapse operation. Wonder how bad the situation is on official server, probably takes more power than a small african country.

   @arcana @7666 @collappsar @nyanide It's not even that much about UX, the problem is that a) their friends don't use it, so why should they b) switching entire communities of friends to other solutions is complicated c) everybody signs up on matrix.org making it unmantainable.
   
   I have a group of friends that like to have movie nights over Discord. When Discord threatened that they will scan for copyrighted material being streamed, the first reaction was "oh fuck". After I offered hosting a Matrix server for them "a)" and "b)" happened and after Discord gave up a month ago, nobody cared.
   
   It's the same most people.
   Twitter became "bad", unhappy users switched to Bluesky only to mostly return a week later.
   People are still using FB and FB Messenger even though it's a barely usable IM now.

   both poast and ncd run matrix servers, if you need a service like discord use those instead 🧑🔬 https://matrix.org/

   Follow up question.

   Once I have a Matrix client... what next?

   There are different servers: Do I need to pick one? Are people using matrix.org?
