At no point did I imply it's garbage because it's FOSS.
I'm always down for more FOSS, and don't ever paint me otherwise.
It's bad because the protocol is heavy and complex. Plenty of technical complications detailed in other comments.

So far the other feedback seems to be "HTTP is overly complex" (which is very subjective), "Matrix is too tied to HTTP" (despite evidence to the contrary), matrix-js-sdk is slow (which we've fixed), and "Riot is extremely resource heavy" (which is relatively true - it's already better than Slack, but we're working on it).
I'd genuinely like to know what your specific bad experience was so we can fix it, as it seems to have really pissed you off to be seen as "garbage" and "not remotely suitable" and "not suitable for business" :)
