>using any google messaging apps
There's a reason they all last only months
riot ? spectrum(spectrum.chat)? matrix protocol in general, mattermost ? sslack ?
what else there is these days
isn't matrix slow af?
no ?
it's ok
the whole protocol seems gimped af to me
they wanted to make a bridge system and ended up putting an own messaging protocol layer on top for business reasons
also they are reports that hangouts is going away
Not actual announcement
then there is Zulip always what is quite decent and open source
I just realized that ICQ still exists
wtf
it uses mattermost as core
zulip might be too nerdy for many tho
I use Discord and FB Messenger/Telegram among my friends so I don't really have this problem
FBM is real botnet but the Lite mobile app is quite good and the social features are a major plus
You can plan events and check who's coming, send updates, etc
tfw almost all communities im part of are in discord
IRC has some in emerency
Also zoomer meme hours my close friends talk exclusively using fucking Snapchat group chat
It's terrible but it works tm
even tho i dont agree with their latest reforms of the service
(they require sign up for new rooms where before the room was just generated when you wrote something after the url
joining pre-generated rooms still is possible as guest tho
maybe to limit amount of rooms created/more effectively ban noncompliant rooms
and before their free-tier allowed 12 video feeds by default
now its 4 participants or pay 10 dollars month
(sure data costs something so understandable
but the fact that they dont allow you to "chat only" for rest of the people watching
so much lost potential
tho lately i have been testing discords video call feature and its "ok"
nothing major but "ok" for 1 on 1 chat
I am visiting my brother and he got into a discussion with some turk
>he tells my brother "I fucked at least ten times as many girls as you"
>he shrugs and replies "ten times zero is zero"
you have good time to write your own "spiderchat"
:P
