> On that note, Matrix can replace twitter and a lot more if they weren't chasing seemingly random features. Not just twitter but email also can be replaced by matrix, the api amd federates architecture allows for it.

What random features? https://matrix.org/blog/2022/08/15/the-matrix-summer-special... is what we’re working on currently. Pretty sure the Matrix community would accuse us of losing focus if we were investing tine in cloning twitter or email over Matrix at this stage…



The core matrix team is fine except for stuff like thirdroom. But even then new features are driven by trying to compete with slack,zoom and signal all at once. It's the Vector/Element side of things I am talking about, the client/products not the core protocol.
