@emma:rory.gay | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org I am sceptical that that is a board with the power to stop Element implementing whatever they want and making it into a de facto standard. I guess the matrix.ort foundation cant stop element doing element things | 17:36:50 |
emily | I did a lot of giving the ecosystem the benefit of the doubt from 2018 onwards | 17:37:22 |
emily | unfortunately the benefit has expired :P | 17:37:27 |
Dandellion | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org then I wonder why they don't just integrate the history into the scrollback This was part of the original design but never happened tm iirc | 17:37:53 |
Dandellion | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org unfortunately the benefit has expired :P Yeah, it's totally understandable. This discontent has brewed for a loong time | 17:38:43 |
emily | I mean, when I started using Matrix my attitude was "this could be the best thing ever, there's rough edges but as long as they focus on the fundamentals and get those polished up I'll go all-in" | 17:39:28 |
emily | 7 years later… a couple of those rough edges have been polished? and the rest are either just as bad or got worse as a bunch of shaky feature development has been piled on top of crumbling foundations | 17:40:00 |
emily | which would be ok if they were candid about it but arathorn's public statements have maintained the exact same tone throughout the years and feel increasingly like dispatches from an alien world to me. | 17:41:08 |
@emma:rory.gay | All im gonna say is, we have a good amount of non-enterprise ecosystem members at the governing level now, its a recent development and needs some time, but we'll get there eventually | 17:41:47 |
