    The thing it’s missing the most is better multi device support and an updated desktop client.

    For me, I think Matrix is more complete (specially since it backs-up your chats and media encrypted). The only thing it’s lacking (at least Element specific) is encrypted chat search support on mobile.

      There’s no way that we can have a mainstream alternative to imessage if we keep declaring a new app or protocol the new best one every two years.

        All Google needs to do is make a public RCS API. Then we will have all the important features iMessage has on Android via regular texting. I have no fucking clue why they are making RCS exclusive to their messaging app.
