Here, I am going to complain about my problems in Matrix :) I’m liking its vision and features and I want to use it but I’ve got lots of problems while using it. Is it just me or general thing? I’ve tried Element, Element X, Fluffy Chat and Cinny so far.
My problems are;
- I got message notification but it did not showed on chat page with Element. I had to use another client.
- I couldn’t accept private chat invite from someone in Element X, I’ve used Cinny to accept it.
- Couldn’t use group tag? (like #group@server) someone send me to join to that chat group in Element, Element X and Fluffy Chat. Cinny worked tho.
- I was not able to verify Cinny session with other devices. It stuck in loading screen.
- Some messages says “waiting for this message” in Element (and X) but I can see them in Fluffy.
- Message threads are only working with Element. It doesn’t works on Fluffy and Element X. Didn’t tried Cinny.
- I can’t browse older messages in chat groups. It just stays in loading.
Probably there are other problems too that I don’t remember. Why are these apps (or Matrix) this broken? Or am I doing something wrong? 😑

I’ve checked that too. It says it is Element fork, so I thought both would have same bugs. But I’ll try, thanks!
I have tons of bugs and frustrations with Element, and none with Schildichat.
Is it has same features like threads?
As far as I can tell, it has full feature parity with Element.
