Do you prefer XMPP or Matrix powered apps as a discord alternative? (lemmy.fedioasis.cc)

You yourself said that the issues I had were only fixed a few months ago.

No, I said I haven't seen a single one of those errors in more than a few months. I haven't been tracking the timeline, but I'm pretty sure the fixes were being put in place closer to a year ago.

I think it’s a little unreasonable to expect me to regularly re-try every other platform before relating my past experiences with it

When we choose to publish old experiences instead of gathering updated information first, it's important to also state when those experiences were, so readers can take it into account. Things are constantly changing in this field. (Mostly for the better, I think.)

In any case, thanks for clarifying, and thanks in advance for adjusting your spiel now that you've been made aware that your information was out of date.
