This is very disruptive to me. Our business chose to use Element because of the privacy and interoperability functions it afforded us through end-to-end encryption and the bridges feature (matrix.org/bridges).
My largest concern is if Apple follows suit, which could lead to large problems with our employees who use iPhones.
Paler, maybe? or Parter?
If you move from iPhone, where would you go?
Texts, not slow as hell, decent battery life, would do it for me.
