Matrix-Libera IRC Bridge Temporary Shutdown, a Retrospective (2023)

I'm not that active on matrix (mostly just passively listening on a few topics that interest me).

However, regarding your last point there seems to be an active focus on improving element and their recent post about elementX [1].

I agree with your other points though, there are a lot of experiments that often lead to nowhere (e.g. P2P is basically abandoned AFAIK).

ElementX on iOS feels really good these days. On the desktop though, I feel nothing really scratches the Discord itch.

It's still has a bit of a work-in-progress feeling, but for desktop usage Cinny has proven to be quite a good Discord-like interface for Matrix.

I'm not using it right now because I switched my server to authenticated media and Cinny doesn't seem to have that implemented (yet), but that's mostly because I'm ahead of the curve on that change.
