In my experience, Element X was released long before it was ready, and I still think it's far from ready. I've been using Element on android and it's been wonderful. Can't speak for iOS.


Element X is fine on iOS, but I wish it had regular updates. It feels like it has stagnated. There is still a feature gap for it to catch up with regular Element on iOS.


Dev on EXI has been focused on:

* event cache, to speed up room load and provide offline support. this was a huge amount of “invisible” work.

* media browsing - swiping between images, using the event cache

* fixing voip integration

* loads of trust & safety features

* threads (now in labs)

* spaces (in active dev)

* search (in active dev)

I agree that it feels like dev has slowed since the initial sprint to launch, but there’s another wave of features landing in the coming months.


Sweet. Many, many thanks.
