Meta-issue: Designing Riot To Be Like Discord #8967

Closed DonaldTsang closed 5 years ago

DonaldTsang commented 5 years ago

Description

There are at least a dozen issues relating to the design of Riot being too user unfriendly, and that people are suggesting designs similar to established apps like Discord and Slack. (Please post related issues in this page for further discussion)

Issue Types:

  1. Better Communities (AKA Discord "servers")
  2. Seamless E2E with better UX
  3. Better "unread messages" with ping as primary type
  4. Tag-based user and mod/admins types (similar to Discord)
  5. Mumble as a default widget (instead of Jitsi as it is bad on mobile)
  6. (others not included in the list above)
