    Well, they just need to make the applications work exactly like their alternatives. Mastodon should show a random feed across the entire Mastodon Fediverse. And Matrix/Element should have a “Discover” section to allow you to browse the entire Matrix, and needs DMs

        They don’t really work like Discord DMs… Maybe that has changed since I last used Element though.

          idk what you mean by that… you can send messages or files to eachother, just like on discord. What else is there?

            They aren’t in a separate section as far as I remember. And you couldn’t have Group DMs.

              There’s a setting to put them into seperate sections and aside from that, Element isn’t the only Matrix client. And for group DMs you can just make a group chat.
