"A faster response"? Is this a satire? Matrix is the slowest chat network ever. 500ms is considered a good latency on the Matrix network! The Element client is the worst and unusable (because of latency) over Tor. I love what matrix is doing with P2P (among other) but "faster" is definitely not their selling point ;) ;)

Matrix is the slowest chat network ever.

Most of this shit is because of the main server, matrix.org, being hilariously overloaded

the main server, matrix.org

That's where you're wrong, kiddo ;)

Or rather: where you should be wrong, but most certainly are not. Matrix.org is "decentralized", but has a central server, due to the fact how their web of trust implementation works. Eventually they'll throw in a blockchain and exit the startup with boatloads of money.
