It does kinda suck being defederated from big instances like lemmy.ml because there are big communities there, but at the other end it’s nice to have alternatives on different instances. For example, I can’t view !programmerhumor@lemmy.ml but I can access !programmer_humor@programming.dev.
I use Element (not X) daily, but a major frustration is that sometimes messages that you’ve received won’t show up until you restart the client. In the past a lot of “Waiting for this message, this may take a while” also appeared. In the android app there is also no search function.
Don’t get me wrong I love the concept and the app so far, but it isn’t nearly as polished as Discord is (which I also use daily)
