I would really like to see Spaces added if possible. This app is quite good and would be excellent to recommend seriously as a Discord alternative, with the mainline Element client being substantially slower and clunkier. Spaces support would deliver that.
well, closer at least, given voice calls in a group is still proposal stage: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3401
but most people I know use discord primarily for text chat (outside of gaming)
What's with the obsession with the letter X?
It's cutting edge, on the verge, or at the forefront of something.

Where did you read that this is a web app? To me it seems like they use kotlin/swift on the respective systems. This is as native as it gets.
I'm dumb and wrong. It uses Rust, SwiftUI and Jetpack Compose.
I have a gold medal at jumping to conclusions.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
