I don't think people on this sub use it, but it's great news for us. The worse it gets the likelier people move on.

the problem isn't switching, the problem is making all the other people using It to switch too, not everyone cares about security or ads

    Go, change it! It's open source.

    One of the interesting features about Matrix is that it supports some degree of interoperability. The Beeper phone app, for all the fuss about its ill-fated attempts to bridge to iMessage, can connect to Discord for basic no-frills text chat.

    I refuse to install Discord on my phone but use Beeper for DMs and group texting.
