I just don’t see it happening. Shit I have a hard time getting them to use god damn Whatsapp or Telegram (still bad but at least better than Instagram).

They are all iPhone users in the US so as you may expect they are too damn lazy to install another messaging app despite having Instagram Snapchat Tiktok BeReal and whatever shitty social media app that exists on the App Store.

For the love of god don’t just say “you need bettee friends” 😂 cause let’s be honest finding a privacy conscious person that you also can get along with in the US as Gen Z is practically impossible.

    Effectively it’s a plugin to the Matrix server instance that acts like a client to the remote network. You can then interact with users on the remote networks like they’re local to yours.

    Sort of like interacting with users on Kbin or Mastodon on, say, lemmy.world.

    It allows me to have, for example, a chat group with people on disparate networks. i.e. a “room” with users from Signal, WhatsApp and Slack having a discussion and everyone just chats without having to worry about who is where or using whichever network.
