I’ve been enjoying matrix so much over the last couple of years. Its so nice having all the choices of clients and for me the best part, all those bridges. Everybody I have a conversation with, over the fact that i dont care where they contact me because I will just get it on the same client anyway, are always envious. (It’s the subtle of flexes :D) I hope we will get client side bridging one day. Ahh and of course p2p matrix. There are just so many awesome ideas and prototypes flying around matrix :)
Genuine question: If the network is decentralized, how are they able to determine the amount of users on the system?
The article mentions opt-in usage reporting, but that would only indicate there’s around 115 million users actively reporting that they’re using it, right?
Matrix has always been unusably laggy for me. Like, it takes longer to send a message over Matrix than over Lemmy. That’s the biggest barrier to entry.
Can I ask you what instance did you use?
I have not had this issue on Matrix.org ever since I had an account, I don’t use it much but I use it occasionally and yeah, no issues. This seems to be an instance related problem rather than a matrix one
There is no way that is true. For context that would be 3 times the population of California
