If there were a chat client with limited features which behaved exactly like Signal or WhatsApp, I think it would be popular.

If one exists, please point me to it.

@adarsh I always thought of fluffychat as filling that space tbh.

@adarsh the fact that matrix lacks contact discovery is a reason, why it would not take off..

@adarsh Did you check out Element? It requires no skill installing, as everything Matrix, you need to get used to the medium

@justdude I can get it to work but I can’t persuade normie friends to use it.

@adarsh same here. It is however for a techy OK.
Even Signal is too much trouble sometimes so...

@adarsh
I think the FluffyChat client goes into that direction.

And @delta fits into the description.

@adarsh it does kinda feel like all existing chat clients still need a lot of work

I use element x, nheko, and fluffychat nowadays. They're good, but not quite as user friendly as signal is just yet
