Since then basically none of the specific bugs I cared about got fixed (that I think could be unbearable to me, some of them definitely are, not sure about all), which are: 8751, 9437, 9811, 10287, 10577, 13263, 13485, 14323, 14424, 15416, 15565, 16123, 16184, 16763, and 16807, all these were all opened before my comment, and everything earlier than 16123 is more than one year old and still open. Maybe one of those is miok's. Newer ones raised since then that also look important to me at first glance: 20046, 20005, 19929, 18458, 17838, 17218.

Also there is this closed bug still attracting comments: https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/15500#issuec....

As much as I hate NPS scores in the industry, I think these bugs are preventing Matrix from getting new promoters.

Same issue is discussed here : https://github.com/vector-im/element-android/issues/1192

(I cannot find my own ticket which was a dupe of these ones)

The first mention of it is 2.5 years old.

For my non tech friend this was so annoying (whatever she tried that stuck message was still there) that she wanted a solution fast. I gave up after a few tries to solve this. (Like the classic : uninstall / reinstall) And I decided she didn't have to suffer this, just because I have ideals about software philosophy. Thanks god, Signal exists and my friends were okay to trust me on this one more time :)

I really hope to come back to Matrix one day ! (We really enjoyed it for nearly a year before this bug came up)
