Default sticker packs could be better #23

Open turt2live opened 4 years ago

turt2live commented 4 years ago

I hear the complaint a lot that the default sticker packs are not great, and empirically so do others (see related issues). One option might be to pay more designers to develop more packs, possibly with a wider range of emotion. Another option would be to finally implement sharing of packs and custom packs in general, then featuring the popular/good ones.

I know I mentioned it already here: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/2950#issuecomment-516507224 But this is just something which is totally confusing to me and I really would like to understand the reason. Signal did recently the same "mistake", imho.

Telegram has awesome stickers and a huge sticker community. Why don't make the Matrix sticker implementation compatible to Telegram stickers? This would solve the problem of not good enough default stickers or not enough good stickers problem immediately. Are there any technical or legal reasons which make this impossible?
