I’ve never used Matrix, and I’m overwhelmed at all the options and feature criteria on the project website.
I’d prefer a native app over electron/similar, but ideally would like something that works on most desktop platforms (windows, mac, linux), although I’m open to it if it is truly superior.
If you’re like me and want a massive desktop client (not a packaged web interface), Nheko is a full featured one that runs very quick and adapts well to run in both small or large windows.
