The resource consumption for chat rooms is absolutely ridiculous compared to XMPP and IRC. It’s so bad that I now believe the protocol is inherently flawed or absolutely unsuitable for realtime messaging.

- Matrix: Unsuitable protocol for realtime messaging with relatively good client ecosystem.
Unfortunately, rejecting WhatsApp is probably one of the most socially isolating decisions I’ve ever made.
