    What matrix is missing is anyone that I know. Ultimately that is way more important than features in a messaging client.

      In my personal experience, everyone who has an account with Signal also has with Matrix. The main issue for me is who has an account at all.

        I’ve used signal for ages but didn’t know what Matrix was until Lemmy tbh

        In turn you can bet that who has one on Matrix will have one on Session, SimpleX and at least other 10 apps you’ve never heard about

      It has bridges for most messaging services so you could use a matrix frontend for most of your messaging needs without having people on matrix so long as the server admin has set up those extensions
