I don't know whether or not it is our instance at $dayjob that has a wonky setup, or if it is the elements client, or what (probably the client, as the problems all but disappear in the webb-ui version), but oh how many synchronization issues we are facing. threaded conversations not showing up, or randomly disappearing, clients getting stuck in message fetching loops, not actually fetching anything, notifications of new messages either not appearing, or not disappearing upon reading them, and ON TOP OF THAT no custom stickers/emojis/gifs...

but those synchronization issues... if I want to be sure something reaches the rest of the team in a timely manner, I have reverted back to email

Matrix should categorically not have any sync issues; this is not normal. Something bad must be happening on the server; what server are you using and how are you running it?

> Matrix should categorically not have any sync issues

Will you please let every single instance of any piece of Matrix infrastructure know? Nothing appears to be respecting this rule.

I don't have such issues, seems like we're living in different worlds

Lol, messages showing up randomly days later is par for the course for our tiny group chat, most of whom are on matrix.org. Sometimes element won't download messages for some rooms (or even all rooms) for days/hours. Matrix has gotten far less reliable over the years (and I used to run a few homeservers).

I was like "oh common, that can't be a real comment, it's obvious to everyone how unstable this still is", then I saw that the comment was from Arathorn.

You know, for half of the time you spend commenting over here to save face (or something), you could work with your users and see their firsthand experience for yourself.

this is me working with my users and trying to understand their firsthand experience for myself :)

Literally no better audience to do this work on than places like here.
