We mean, overall we need something to text (plus send files), call, video/screen share and bonus for emojis, stickers and gifs. We get that discord and matrix isn’t really the same thing but the end result and use case is :/ So it would be a replacement for us
Doesn't Matrix do everything you just listed?
Not the screen share which is pretty important to us. Can’t get it to work 90% of the time.
You should file an issue.
Where we had the issues, we did report them at the time. It was a while ago, so can’t remember which ones that we tried had issues. Have it in our plans to try a few again soon next time we get free time
pretty much Matrix's entire point
also implemented in pretty much every server and client; I think even Element can send files
look into e.g. #matrixrtc:continuwuity.org — sable requires a setting to show the call button in non-DM rooms
unfortunately this is the only thing I'm not confident is supported
should be available with any im.ponies-compatible client such as sable
Screen share works, although some browsers don't capture audio
Yeah the video/screen share it’s important to us as we like to watch stuff with friends and need it to show clients of art work during calls. It’s like the 1 thing rn that’s stopping us
