I feel this is happening a lot…that’s not really how to use matrix the correct way is it?

Also, big bummer element has no gif keyboard. My friends are bummed about it.

    I also had issues while making an account there.

    I think federation is actually undesirable in this case. Most Discord communities are very particular, and I’d be making one just for my friends and me, no need to complicate things by introducing federation.

      federation would help with not having to move your whole friend group to a new service just because you want to move. with it you can move, and still be in touch with those that didn’t.

      I feel like communities being particular is exactly why it should be federated. You can have your account on your instance with you and your friends, but connect to another instance dedicated to a community of hardcore pen enthusiasts with the same account, and no one has to worry about getting money somehow to support hosting all these communities in a single place :)
