I was convinced to move into the Matrix ecosystem because of the promise/focus on bridging it into other things. I was hoping the clients would improve enough to be usable.

I think that was 5 or 6 years ago, and I'm convinced the clients have somehow gotten worse. That may just be perception though.

I haven't bothered looking for new clients though since the 'vibe-coding era' has begun, maybe something else has come along.
