I must say that this is the same reason I stopped using Fractal. However, there are alternatives like Revolt: https://github.com/aperezdc/revolt UI-wise, RocketChat feel more polished than Riot, but I have used RocketChat on and off. Regarding to the mobile client: Riot's client is not mature yet. The stable version for Android does not support the latest Riot protocol, which allows edits, and reactions. As a consequence, if someone edits a message say 5 times, you see 5 times the same message (with a star at the beginning to know it is an edited message), and no reaction. The development version supports edit, but it lacks several features already available in the stable one. I do not use it mobile that much, but enough to notice Riot is not mature yet. I have not tested RocketChat mobile app. YMMV. -- Germán Poo-Caamaño https://calcifer.org
