That may be so, but my group of 4 has been using it for voice, text, and screen share, with almost zero issues. (Except a couple sync issues that fixed itself in a day) We are working on getting off the matrix.org server soon though.
I'm surprised actually how good its been. I am sure the small glitch we had is because we are on matrix.org. need to move soon. My friend set up our room without me and didn't understand that you don't just use the matrix.org server ...explaining how matrix works is hard to non nerds.
I usually explain it like email, most people get it then. Doesn't matter if you're using @outlook.com or @gmail.com when sending an email, you can talk to users on either as long as you specify the server address (which is mandatory in email anyway).
Yes same!! They just get confused on what a server is. They dont get that our room on matrix.org is not a server. And what is matrix vs their clients like element commet fluffychat..I try to explain its the client vs the protocol but then I get called a big old nerd 😁
Discord warped a lot of minds on terminology.
