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)
How do you use spaces? I tried it in Element and it was very confusing to me, so I removed them from my setup again.
Spaces are a way to group things together.
Unlike something like folders in Discord, spaces can contain rooms or other spaces. Spaces can also be shared across several users.
Spaces can be created by anyone and any rooms or spaces can be added to them, even if you don’t have control over said rooms of spaces.
Admins of rooms can configure them to only allow members of specific spaces to join, turning them into an approximation of a “Discord Server”.
I use them essentially like folders of chats, similar to discord having many rooms in one server, so I for example have a space for External Servers (I.e federated chats in other homeservers), a Personal space with chats only I can access, etc.
What’s with the obsession with the letter X?
It’s cutting edge, on the verge, or at the forefront of something.
X is used a lot in Prototyping and Experimental designations or higher end products (see Aerospace and chipset architecture). In a more “Layman’s” Sense I would also assume that people associate it with being “Extreme/X-treme”
Can anyone recommend a good server to join? I’m not sure what to look for.

Have we lost the knowledge how to make native software? Do we really have to use bloated, memory hogging “web apps” disguised as executables? Is cross-platform really worth the performance impact?
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.
