Hey y’all, REAL basic question here. Like many, friends and I have started using Matrix (working on setting up my own server) and settled on Commet for a client, mainly because of its simplicity and gif keyboard (friends demand it)
Now I see in the Element client, during a call you can mute others. Commet does not have this feature anywhere that I can see, or I am missing something! This seems like such a basic feature I can’t believe they wouldn’t have it. Its a feature we desperately need to be able to mute others with echo/noise or if you have 2 gamers in the same room with 1 mic it picks up everyone so you want to be able to mute that person so you don’t hear yourself echo back). Honestly element has much better audio settings but is just missing integrated gifs or I would use it.
I understand devs are doing this for free and owe us nothing. But this setting should really be in there. Teamspeak had it 15 years ago…
I did search everywhere I could on the internet and found no answer to this.
Anyway, thanks for the noob help!
It doesnt come from a place of not listening to real users.
Most open source projects are hobbies. Tools that they want to use themselves, so thats who they build for. Themselves.
We just get to come for the ride and use what they built for free.
That’s why you see this a lot.
I totally get that. I can’t complain. But it’d be nice if I could be like hey, me and my friend will both give you “x” amount of dollars to someday code this in, depending on difficulty…
Either way I’ll donate to em.
This is just a hard thing to explain to non nerds. They all say “wait why doesn’t it have that? Discord has it. Discord is better” and then we have the mess we’re in…
So sponsoring a feature might be possible. Its referred to as a bounty. Posting it with your request is the way to go. Especially if they have donors on their page.
Oh I understand. Thanks !
