However, actually competing with Discord will require a tonne of hard work in Element. The little things like automatic voice activation, echo cancellation and volume normalization are the reasons Discord are as fantastic as it is, so Element will need to be excellent with those to compete.
Also, if you move on for reasons that aren't bike-shedding then I'd love to know what the architectural/technical reasoning is.
Voice activation is a client side thing.
Feels like a needed step for community-building after having used Discord for so long. You are doing awesome work.
Many thanks for the work you do!
