@lynnesbian are they using electron? I've got no problem with using a framework I'm just curious because every chat app based on electron seems to have the same layout from Discord to Wire.

@lynnesbian @radicalrobit what's wrong with these people why aren't they bring creative and designing their own UI, instead opting for the same UI used in proprietary software? where are the points for being creative?

@xinayder yeah it's not very creative i know, but they've at least put their own spin on it, and there's a reason so many people copy successful user interfaces

@lynnesbian we’ve had some distractions but it’s converging on completion. WIP is up at riot.im/experimental (warning: still a lot missing)

@radicalrobit then why waste time coding an encrypted chat app if it works just like Slack?it may be more friendly because people are used to this interface, but meh. I wonder if they spent their time designing the app to look exactly like Discord or if there's a framework for it.

@xinayder probably because slack isn't fucking encrypted and isn't peer to peer

@lynnesbian I've stayed away from matrix mainly because of that but I might start using it with that
