    first time I heard of it. why is it that, the knees? looks like a trillian type-of-thing. wants my email. only appimage available. oh it’s electron crap. website isn’t great, the copy is super-amateur hour. it got acquired by the wordpress lunatic. I mean, OK, but doesn’t look very promising.

      New desktop isn’t electron, and of course it’ll need your email, it’s a chat app.

      But the real cool thing is that it’s a matrix client (that federates!) and all the bridges are open source, the company maintains most all of the bridges to corporate chat platforms.

        I’ve been using it for over 6 months. There’s a web app too if you don’t use the self hosted button. Absolutely saves me from doom scrolling.
