     I do use #Matrix a little, but I have been saying all along that I don't like the way they bolted on end-to-end encryption (E2EE) after the protocol was already in use. There are constantly issues (see the \#element-ios:matrix.org and \#element-android:matrix.org rooms for regular traffic about issues related to encryption and the "verify my device and session" process that should never appear. And there is no concept of a contact ... there is some simulation in the way one-to-one chats are labelled, but there are some weird things that can happen if one expects that a list of those chats are a contact list.
