I understand that it may be problematic sometimes but this was very smooth. I didn’t even say anything.

A: what’s your number for the whatsapp group Me: I don’t have whatsapp because of facebook. B: ok, we have to use signal then A: ok

And that was it. Life can be very easy sometimes

People need to get this through their heads, XMPP is the only solution for their problems.

On the contrary, you need to understand that your own needs and priorities do not match everyone else’s, and that XMPP is not a good fit for every use case.

(Your rant was amusing, though. I hadn’t seen one like that in a couple weeks.)

While I agree with your point just tell me what Matrix does better? It’s better at being overly complicated? Or at being more propriety?

Nobody owes you their time or their patience. If you want help understanding something, I suggest you tone down the fearmongering, manipulative, adversarial comments. If you’re just looking for a fight, kindly go elsewhere.
